Member Since: February 2007 Posts: 59 Send Message	Hi. was feeling quite smug having found a marriage for Barnard Spencer Glandford Brigg J-M 1882 V. 7a P. 920. Should then have been easy to find Elizabeth his wife and her surname. Could not find it, even using Lizzy and Betsey as possible first name. Bernard Spencer born 1860 Walkeringham, Nottinghamshire and Elizabeth abt 1860 Wrangle Lincs, both lived in Ashby, Lincolnshire regards Shirley
