If possible could somebody look at the marriage certificate for Joseph Creswell and Mary Blythe in 1854 in the Hackney area in the collection London, England, Church of England Marriages and Banns, 1754-1938.  I would like to know if their ages are quoted and father's names.  Also if the groom's occupation was a chair carver.  This is because I want to make sure I have the correct family for William Cresswell mentioned in the link.  Many thanks

Brilliant that was just the answer I was looking for!  You have been very kind to help me out.

Many thanks
You're welcome. I've just edited the name of the witness to William's wedding. Not sure how I managed that typo!
