Can someone with access to London marriages on Ancestry please look up the details for Grace Smith and Charles Dubery Wilson. The marriage should be in 1872 and Charles should come from Birmingham, father William, Grace however is a mystery.

Manyy Thanks

Thanks for that everyone.

Does the record show Grace's age? Charles, I believe, would have been in his late 50's by then (4th marriage but I've got the others)
