Found this marriage...

Year .. 1941
Quarter Apr-May-Jun
Bride .. Mary Eccles
Groom .. Hall
District .. Preston
Vol .. 8e
Page .. 1436

Cross checked to make sure that it was to Joseph.
NO match ?
Checked the whole quarter of Hall's to see who she married...No match !

As Hall .. Joseph, start a new page, I can only assume that he was missed.
