Notes for Henry Stopford & Blanche Evelyn (Family)
The only information about their marriage or coming together is the 1911 census which says that on census day they had been married for 28 years. This places their marriage any time from April 1882 to March 1883. So I have entered it as c.Sep 1882. I still have no idea where they got together.
