The marriage is in the name of Rowlands


Marriages Mar 1955

HILLEN Elizabeth P - ROWLANDS- Bootle 10b 1358
ROWLANDS James J - HILLEN - Bootle 10b 1358


Does the father on the marriage cert match the father on the birth cert ?

The s makes all the difference

Stephen birth is listed as Rowlands but mmn is mistranscribed as Willen which is why it wasnt showing
