I too am an Essex man from a pretty rural area and like jonwarrn must also say it’s the best county.

I agree that the marriage certificate would confirm or deny if I have the right couple.

My mother grew up in Great Canfield and I believe as a young girl she knew Jimmy Mason, known as " The Hermit" locally. I bought Mum the book about Jimmy Mason, some years ago, Mum gets a mention, but by a changed name. My grandfather visited Jimmy on various occasions. The book written by Raleigh Trevelyan.

England's greatest county,

it’s the best county.

Situated close to the banks of the mighty River Tyne and looking out at the hills of Northumberland I have to say that you've both got it wrong!

Have a look through the newspapers online to see if you can find any details about the wedding.
