Hi Terry I suspect it refers to the marriage taking place at the Register Office in Leicester, not sure if it had the same location in 1896 but was / is at Pocklingtons Walk which would be in the Parish of St Martins It was known colloquially as St Pocklingtons Cathedral <vbg> Best wishes Nivard Ovington, in Cornwall (UK) > i have a marriage cert dated 22/08/1896,at the top of cert it says > MARRIAGE SOLEMNIZED at the blaby district the register office in the > parish of st martin leicester in the county of leicester, where was st > martin leicester ?i thort blaby district was wigston area > > many thanks, > > terry.
