[peterb]

Would anyone have access to the marriage registers of St Stephen and St Agnes, Burmantofts, Leeds. I am interested in the 1935 marriage of Fred Speight and Rose May Wilson Tyreman.

thanks for any help,

Hi Peter

Have you contacted the West Yorkshire Archives Centre at Leeds and asked for a transcription? If you have the exact date they may be able to help.

http://www.archives.wyjs.org.uk/documents/archives/Collections%20Guide%201.pdf

If not you could apply to the General Register Office (www.gro.gov.uk) for a copy which will cost GBP £9.25

The reference details you need are

Sep 1935  Leeds North  9b 701

Hi Philip

You could always have a look at the image and make a transcription here for Peter.

Statistically, that is somewhat unlikely, there are 4 births in 1911/1912 for Fred but if Peter confirms thay have died you can post the information.

Thank you both for your help. I do appreciate that a 1935 marriage is going close to the possibility of at least one of the parties still being alive. Nevertheless, the info seems to indicate that they were both born more than 100 years ago.

Importantly for me, the two witnesses were unknown to me until now. They were the brothers of the bride and all three were my mother's first cousins. One named after his father, the other after his grandfather.

Thanks again,

PeterB

Hi Peter

We seem to be following the same thread, My father in law is Colin - Son of Fred Speight and Rose May Wilson.

You seem to be a bit further along than we are, do you have the names of siblings from either side, just to confirm we're following the same family tree, if you prefer just first initials for the sake of privacy.

We're curious to see if we could actually be related.

Kindest Regards
Chelsea x
