[weemay]

if anyone is visiting Stoke on Trent records office could they please check the marriage of Thomas Jackson/Annie Trow 6b 289 Stoke ref: 36/3/133 and give me the names and occupations of parents. Thanks for any help.

It may help people to know that the marriage took place at St Lukes, which is in Hanley.

I may be going to the archives next week if no-one helps you before then.

Thanks Sam, I re posted this request as I hadn't heard from you again and got no other replies. Would appreciate your help, if no luck guess I will just have to pay for a marriage certificate.      May x

Oops, that will teach me to post without previewing first!

Annie should be 26, not 2.

Thanks Sam, that's great, thought I was on the wrong track as the Thomas Jackson who I thought was the father was a shoemaker and gut feeling told me that wasn't right. I can start tracing Thomas(Potter) now. Thanks again for your help.
