Title: Marriage certificate help
Post by: close1 on Thursday 24 July 25 13:53 BST (UK)

Hi, I was wondering if anyone can help decipher the street name is the marriage certificate, I think it says Glebe Street but I'm unsure,

Thanks for any help

Looks like that to me.  And they are both the same !  A common name, especially in old villages.  Is it in the centre of old Birmingham ?

I saw Glebe Street too and I hadn't read the reply, just looked straight at the image.

I see Glebe too.

What year was the marriage?  You could look on the nearest census year to see if they or other family were living there.

The year of the marriage was 1872, I've looked in the 1871 census and unfortunately it's a different family

Usually the way isn't it but worth a look.
