Hi Erika,

There is a marriage for a William GLEDHILL Dec q 1846 Wakefield 22 148 and a marriage for Sarah ELVIDGE Dec Q 1846 Wakefield 22 641.  I've checked the images so they don't appear to have married each other!  Do you have any further information eg. birth certificates of one of the children or census records?

Do you have reason to believe that they may have died in Lancashire?

possible 1841 census, though you need the marriage cert to be sure of father's name and occupation

A couple of possibles for Sarah in 1841 are in Nottingham and Sheffield, but this one seems closest, not with parents though. Birthplace South Kirkby about 11 miles from Wakefield

Just had another look at the images, and Barbara you are right - it is 22 648 for both but some of the pen strokes are very faint!

Hi Jean,

The GRO images are much clearer usually than the freebmd ones, as I found when doing some transcribing for them
 

I have sent in an amendment, so hopefully in future Sarah will appear as a spouse on the same page as William

Excellent Barbara, that will be a great help.
