Can you workout the surname of the first witness John Thomas ?

Any help will be great.

Possibly John Thomas James is my best effort.

Do you know who Ethel Sanderson married in case he was her beau?

Following that theory there is a John Thomas Nunn and Ethel Sanderson on the same page for a marriage in 1907 Dewsbury.

Could be barking up the wrong tree but you never know.

They do pair up as bride and groom.  She was 23 a weaver father George deceased coachman if that matches at all. 

Actually think it does.  Same church and I think same residence Nelson St? for Ethel and your bride.

Good thinking Milliepede, I didn’t think of that not having access to the  Parish Record.
