Thanks Jimmy, that looks promising

Oops, just noticed I forgot the witnesses: John Haskey, Jane Haskey

On ancestry Edwards down as Bremall for the marriage, double checking the image this could be correct!

How do I add an image? Haven't got the hang of that yet

I'm pretty certain it should be Bremall, as the "r" in Bremall does look like other r's on the image and there is a definate m rather than rn. I'd like to post the cropped image, just don't know how!

No luck with the witnesses.

I'd still like to post the partial image from the marriage to see if we're on the right track as far as Edward's name's concerned - could someone please tell me how to do it

I dont know how to do it need comp whizz

Jimmy's going to post it for me - I've sent him the image file

Attaching this for Sue,

Looks like Bumall to me

Thanks Jimmy

If you look at the r in "mark of" and compare it to what comes after the B, it looks very similar. Then look at the second e in Ellen... and compare that. It's down as Bremall on ancestry and on WMBMD, and the census results that have been found are closer to Bremall that Burnall. It's a difficult one though.

What does anyone else think?

I think it looks like Bremall.
