Hello

Can I please ask for a lookup for the following two marriages at St Martins?

Rose Hannah Matilda Rogers to Edwin Benjamin Moorby on 4 May 1852 (Ancestry has his surname as Monty)
and
Caroline Rogers to Joseph Downing 21 Jan 1845

I would be very grateful for the father's names, occupations, addresses.

Thanks very much.

Suzanne

Oh thanks Shera!!! I hoped they were going to be Henry the Tobacconist's daughters:) Proves I'm on the right lines.
I wonder if one of the witnesses could be their other sister Mary Ann Rogers?

Brilliant:)
