hi there christina

thank you so much for your help,i hope this is the right person,im just hoping it will fit in for the age of john on his wedding he was 30 when he got married

jane

Depending on the age of his bride, he might have trimmed a little off his age!!!!

hi christina

the age of john was 30 and the age of elizabeth was 22 at the time of their marriage

jane

If you're marrying a 22 year old, saying you're 30 sounds a lot better than admitting you're 35, doesn't it?

it sure does hahaha wish we cud get away with it now.anyway thanks christina i will certaintly look into this info

many thanks

jane
