ME TO GLITTER I KNOW HER MAIDEN NAME WAS RUSSELL BECAUSE ITS ON MY GRANDFATHERS BIRTH CERTIFICATE AND IT SAYS SHE WAS MARRIED FOR 23 YEARS ON THE 1911 CENSUS AND THAT WOULD MAKE IT 1888 NOT 1885

Can anyone see her marriage? With such a common name it might be an idea to get the cert.

EDIT same idea - and same result!
