you could have checked it yourself!!!!


from freebmd ....................


Marriages Dec 1912 (>99%)

Hickman Joseph Smith W.Ashford 2a 2045


click on 2045 (which is the page number in volume 2a of the GRO Registers)

and you get .....................

Marriages Dec 1912 (>99%)

FOORD Mabel M Giles W. Ashford 2a 2045
GILES Francis E Foord W.Ashford 2a 2045
Hickman Joseph Smith W.Ashford 2a 2045
Smith Mabel Hickman W.Ashford 2a 2045



Even though there are 2 Mabels on this record ........ it is obvious which one Joseph married as they are cross matched.
