Marriage Matthew Jubb Caroline Howard Sheffield 1866

August 12th 1866 Matthew Jubb 22 Bachelor Knife Hafter Bennett Lane father John Jubb Silversmith Caroline Howard 18 Spinster Bennett Lane father Alfred Howard Knife Hafter Parish Church of St Mary Sheffield Matthew Jubb X his mark Caroline Howard X her mark


Caroline Howard was actually 16 years of age when she married, despite it saying 18 on the marriage certificate!

As I've discussed in previous posts, I believe Matthew Jubb was formerly Matthew Chapman born in Sheffield 1844, mother Ruth Jubb. Here is his birth certificate - notice his father's name is not specified.
