Notes for Edward Charles John & Frances Charlotte (Family)
They were married by licence; I am not getting a copy of this, though.

On their marriage certificate they were both of full age and bachelor and spinster. He was a Lieut of the Royal Regt of Foot, living at South parade; she was living there too.  His father’s name was given as Edward Claremont, General in the army; her father was George Augustus Wetherall, Colonel in the Army.  Of the witnesses, five were wetheralls, one was an Anderson and one a Hildyard.
