Thanks very much for all the extensive help here. It’s all come in so fast I haven’t been able to keep up! Yes I have got 2 couples mixed up. The couple who married in Glasgow in 1918 are the wrong couple. The one I am after is the one Christine53 has found, who married in Montreal. So there’s lots of useful references to them. Thank you. I’ll have to go through this and assimilate it all.
