This couple were the witnesses on my great grandfather's marriage certificate in 1885 in King's Lynn Norfolk
I was trying to find them on census records to see if and what the connection to my family might be. He was a sailor, so was my great grandfather, so imagine they may have worked together (he is about 20 years older than my relative so head honcho on ship maybe )
I can find John and Amelia on 1881 1891 1901 and him a widower in 1911 all in Kings Lynn
nothing for 1871, they married (Mar quarter 1870)
can anyone find them in 1871?
I have messaged the lady who has a tree on Ancestry
Many thanks

If he is a sailor then they could have been away at sea and missed out for whatever reason, or hiding under a badly transcribed name at a far-flung port.
Added: But those Ewes look good.

Well found Vi! It certainly seems to be them. The accent would definitely help towards making a mistake like this!

Thanks
Looks like Mr Hughes was a Royal Navy man early on, think my gt grandad was merchant navy I suppose that is a logical transfer to make as you get older .
still no nearer to finding out if they worked together but thanks everyone for your input.
