GLO'STER GOLDEN WEDDING
Mr and Mrs James Brain, formerly of Cinderford, have celebrated their Golden Wedding in Gloucester. They were married at Lydbrook Baptist Chapel on April 11, 1891. Mr. Brain, who is about 73 and still very fit, came from Ruardean Hill, and his bride, who has been an invalid for the past two years, lived at Ruardean. Mrs Brain was Miss Annie Bess Palmer, and both families are well known on the Eastern side of the Forest.

Cannot find a full PR for their marriage, but FreeBMD has it;
Ed, note that FreeBMD quotes dates to the nearest Quarter, so this Record relates to an event in April or May or June, and so on. Also note the year differs from the newspaper report. GlosBMD has this Record but currently cannot add the place...
