Oops ! As Jeremy Frankel has gently pointed out I mistyped part of my message yesterday. What I meant to write was: - "Checking on LancashireBMD shows that the brides surname was on the Marriage Register as either, or both, JAFFE or JOFFE." Many apologies. To see for oneself it would be necessary to get a copy from the Manchester Register Office. Asking for a photocopy of the original Register entry, quoting their reference number, 527A/2/26, as noted on the LancashireBMD website at <http://www.lancashirebmd.org.uk/> Again, many apologies.
