Wow! thanks so much for that perchino. That certainly came from left field! Am always in awe of how much you people know. Will start searching on those sites over the next few days.

did you know of the lancashire sites which can be v useful?

lan-opc.org.uk (in this case not particularly useful)

and

lancashirebmd.org.uk

which gives Mary Ellen's birth showing mmn = Lowe

Lancashire Birth indexes for the years: 1882
Surname Forename(s) Sub-District Registers At Mother's Maiden Name Reference
ARROWSMITH Mary Ellen Culcheth Wigan & Leigh LOWE CUL/36/261

which then lets you find on freebmd.org.uk

Marriages Mar 1881 (>99%)
ARROWSMITH Samuel Leigh 8c 191
Lowe Nancy Leigh 8c 191

all the above sites are free to use
