Hi Rosemary Thankyou for that information, I did look on rootsweb but only put in the surname spelling for Read. Not my family but someone had looked at my website and noticed I had a marriage in Christchurch Independent Chapel. I have told them where they can buy the fiche and now will send this info to. I have at last found the marriage for Henry ( Harry) Owen my grandfathers brother. He was known as Danny. By chance when I went to the funeral of my mums last sister a cousin told me Danny Owen was my granddad's brother and lived in Kettering with loads of children. I asked if he knew his wife's name and he told me very unusual Vealabeth. Needless to say I couldn't wait to get home and look on rootsweb BMD's and found the marriage of Harry Owen & Vealabeth Goodfellow 1906, Kettering.I sent off for the marriage cert and father Given as John Owen fish & poultry dealer. Same father as my grandfather. The aunt who died had told me my grandfather had a brother Danny but searching found nothing. Another problem solved. Regards Heather Checked by AVG Free Edition.
