Thank you PH, but it was pure luck.

Noticed there were only three names so checked again using the second name and hey presto!

Checked Sunderland council website for marriages and the two names came up together, to confirm.

:-D :-D

That looks jolly good Alemap!

The district Sunderland spans the boundaries of the counties of Co. Durham and Tyne and Wear.

>>>>>GRAHAM Mary Ann Sunderland 10a 796
VICTORY John Humble Sunderland 10a 796
