Garratt/ Bannister/Guest puzzle

Post by sp1 »

This Alfred Garratt:
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... ver=371646
Was born abt 1845, Netherton.

He married Mary A Bannister (b abt 1842, Netherton).

They married 1865, St James, Dudley- Alfred gives his father as Thomas Garratt (I know he was born abt 1802, Shrewsbury), but Mary gives her father as Benjamin Guest? (Both bride and groom are described as single).
