ON THE MARRIAGE , ? >

Re: WILLIAM ,AND BERTHA VICTORIA HINTON ,

Glad you liked the info.
Be careful not to get the 2 Walters mixed up
The Father Walter senior was the policeman and it was his Son Walter(Berthas brother)who was in the reformatory school.It probably meant he was a bit wayward especially as it appears that after Walter seniors wife Katherine died the children were cared for by Walters mother and he was a bit older than the girls..

You could probably find information about HMS Mars on the internet.

The marriage was in Marylebone 1877 reference 1a 927.
You would be better off ordering it from General Register Office ,Southport, Merseyside,it will cost you £7 using the reference number.
