On the scrounge and on the cheap!
« on: Thursday 10 April 25 03:40 BST (UK) »
Hello everyone
Bit of a nerve I know, but I have discovered a wedding announcement via online newspaper access, but the image or detail is behind a paywall and I am loathe (and cheap) to subscribe for just one record.
If anyone has access to the Peterborough Standard (Cambridgeshire, England), there is reference to a marriage for David Culy & Mary Walker on page 8 of the November 3rd 1888 issue.  I am hoping some kindly soul might access it and reveal the detail that the notice contains.
I'd be every so grateful, really, I would.
Thanks in abundance in anticipation.
Best regards
Stuart Mcdonald, Western Australia.

Woo hoo Kay!  You're a star!  Thank you so very much, it has filled in one small gap, and that is a wondrous thing in my little world.  I really appreciate your time and generosity.
Every best wish,
Stuart

And the devil is in the detail!  Thanks for the look-up, I have been able to access the date thanks to the generosity of browsers on RootsChat.
All the best,
