    sorry cant make a church name out of that - the churches in chislehurst appear to be st nicholas and chislehurst church and it doesnt look like either of them. it actually looks more like a signature to me eg G R Lampey.

    perhaps someone else can help

    Have to agree it does look more like a name of someone than a church

    That looks like the signature of the person marrying the couple. If this is from a post-1837 church the name should be on the top of the cert.



    Where did you get it from?

    A cousin passed this on to me but deleted all the lines and columns - playing around with Photoshop again



    I've now found the record myself and it makes more sense, it's from the British Army WW1 Pension Records.



    You're right about the signature but I still can't figure out what the church is called. It seems to read The Ch: of the Ann Pl Chislehurst.



    I've had to chop it up a bit because I'm near my attachment limit.

    To me, the first line starts The Ch of the G.R. I think this stands for The Church of The Great Redeemer, Which sounds like a Methodist Church.
