I am hoping that there may have been a newspaper report/article about the society wedding of my ancestors.
They are ARTHUR LAW to his younger wife CLARA MAUDE SIMMS.
They married on 2nd November 1871 at the Church in Swainswick, near Bath, Somerset.
Please, please, please don't do any 'sideways', 'up' or 'down' research on these two - we have ALOT of information/photos/scandal [yes !] and are only hoping that there may be a report of their wedding.
Big thank you in advance.
Nicola
