My parents got married on the 22nd April 1941, at this church, I also got married at this church in October 1968. I also believe a lot of my mother’s family got married here.

Alan, thanks for your comments regarding the archive. We are always pleased to hear what viewers think of the site.
Also, thanks for alerting us to the name change needed on one of the photos. We will make the necessary alteration as soon as possible.

I was amazed to find photographs of 3 of my family weddings on your site, which includes a picture of my Dad Ted Baptist and me last and last but one on the right of the photo of my cousin Pat Higgins wedding.
A correction to the names on the photo of my mum and dad’s wedding, the bridesmaid named as Alice Baptist is in fact my aunt Dorothy Baptist (Dolly).
Glad I found your site and will be in touch with photos and memories, Alan Baptist.
