George Flowers and Harriet Law: Marriage Certificate

Certificates

This is the last of 3 certificates I obtained recently from Sheffield Register Office.

The marriage certificate for George FLOWERS 1839-1891 and Harriet FLOWERS (née Harriet LAW 1836-1903) has disproved some of my previous research:

I recorded the father of George FLOWERS 1839-1891 as being George FLOWERS, but the marriage certificate records James FLOWERS.

I recorded the father of Harriet FLOWERS (née Harriet LAW 1836-1903) as being Joseph LAW born abt. 1817 and married to Ann LAW (née Ann MOORE) born about 1821, but the marriage certificate records Frederick LAW 1811-Deceased.

Dates of birth for George and Harriet are both given as 'FULL'. Residence at time of marriage appears to be given as 'Jericho' though I may be mistaken. Not very helpful.

Clearly I have to undertake additional research.

Again I will post a full transcript of this marriage certificate as and when time allows.

Joseph Law and Ann Moore

Published: January 1, 2006    Last modified: November 5, 2016

A search on FreeBMD returns a marriage for Joseph LAW for the September quarter of 1837. The most likely spouse by virtue of being the only 'Ann', is one Ann MOORE.
Once again this is conjecture but another visit to Sheffield Register Office may provide some answers.
