Sylvia, There's a Street called Picadilly in Hanley which is just up the road from Shelton. I don't know how well you know the area but if you find the train statrion on a map,it's very close to Shelton,Hanley is about a mile North of it. I hope this helps you, All the Best, Helen. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sylvia Walker" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, February 15, 2003 3:10 PM Subject: [Pots] HALL / TAYLOR marriage 1870 > I am new to this list and need to ask for some help. > > After searching for my ggrandparents' marriage for may years in Lancashire I have with the help of the IGI pinned it down to Stoke -upon-Trent-Register Office.
