I have their marriage certificate. James Richardson Moore married Ester Jane Blacklock on 14 Dec 1907 in Sunderland, Co Durham.
The only problem is, is this was not my grandmother her name was Maude Carney and they had 4 children that survived birth and a few still births.
I am looking for my grandparents marriage if there was indeed one at all.
Any help gratefully received.
