Hi tanja,
Thanks, yes to the 1st , florence ida rang bells when I told my father, although he never knew her.
I need to find the best way of getting the marriage certificate, I have the volume and page number from freebmd.
I have also chased down the details for ben's marriage to a barbara exley in 1859 and should be able to move a step on from there. Your short list will help.
