Hello List Nick, I do not know whether the following book would be of any help. It is available at the British Library and perhaps you may find it in a genealogical society reference library. "An indexed list of British marriages solemnized during extraterritoriality 1860-1899 in Japan" transcribed, indexed and introduced by Neil Pedlar. Author: Alfred Neil Pedlar, 1940- Newquay, Cornwall : Four Turnings Publications, 1993.
