You are quite right - I have just had a 'little look' too - LOLA it is !!!

Dea Xxx

P.S. - Just remember, if you order the cert from GRO (£9.25 - 96ish Yuan ???) , you will probably need to order it under Lois as transcribed, or at least refer to the mistranscription error and the two possible names ???

OK ladies...I'm back,and require your experience again!

My father John Thomas's marriage cert; confirms that his fathers name was in fact Michael Jordan of Manchester, and was a Vetenary Doctor!..Perhaps he was "embarrassed" with ending up in the workhouse,and his father's accupation was a little "Fib"!..and was in fact the guy below!!!

On checking the 1901 census there was only one Michael Jordan,[age 37] in Manchester at that time, and he was a Labourer..Gas Works!...His wife was named Mary A..[age 32]..and a Daughter age 5..This wood tie up with John Thomas and Elizabeth mentioned earlier in a workhouse.


What do you think?
