Thanks go out to MP.Peter,Jeff

MP -Thanks for the heads up on the will ordering,I will look into getting a copy of it.

Peter-Thanks for looking through the records of marriages,I did find the ones you mentioned and then went onto search the baptisms of which he conducted 28 in 1884/5/6,the Alvington burials don't seem to be on there,did I read somewhere they are photocopied and not on fiche?

Jeff-Thanks for the info on the church and archives.And it was not too daunting to find the officiating vicar using the advanced search,although it did help that Alvington was the second parish? listed ,once I had increased the entries to the 100 per page it is easier to get the year you are looking for and click on to open to reveal the details.

One interesting thing it did show was the first time he officiated was a baptism on the 2nd of March 1884 which would have been 2/3 months before he got married to his much younger housekeeper in Worcester 1884 amj,I do hope he was'nt living in sin in the vicarage during that time.
