im doing a friend's tree, and have got stuck on the marriage cert of her great grandparents.
28 jan 1910, gisborne, new zealand. albert read, 26, b.1884, bristol, england. bachelor and labourer, residence, gisborne. parents: something neumond? read, labourer and fanny read, m.n. unknown.
bride was linda (ottawa) parkes, age 21, parents george parkes and margaret parkes "mumford".
there is only one albert read plus variants born around 1884 in bristol, was the son of charles richards read and elizabeth fanny weymouth johns. and the father's name on the cert does not look like charles!!
the second word in the father's name could be an 'n', it looks like the 'n' for new zealand on the cert, but it could also be a 'w', maybe weymouth?
