Event Note

Here is the page from the BMD record:
Surname First name(s) District Vol Page

and we know Richard's wife was Alice, but not which one. My money would be on Topliffe (the others look German) but not very much of it!

Here's the Topliffe BMD birth info:
Surname First name(s) District Vol Page
Births Mar 1872 (>99%)
Topliffe Alice Emma Lambeth 1d 424

This is more or less consistent with the date from the marraige certificate.

Found no record for Alice Notscheid. Maybe an immigrant.

Event Note

Witnesses at the wedding were Charles Topliffe and Elizabeth Meredith.
