The marriage certificate for John Pask & Harriett Lander née Hughes arrived on Saturday. The certificate has been scanned and will be included in the next website update.

They were married on 6 August 1837 in the parish church of St. Paul Convent Garden, [London] Middlesex. The marriage was witnessed by Harriett Ann Lander [possibly Harriett's young daughter], and Ann Hales.

John was a Musical Instrument Maker, a Widower of full age residing at Bow Street. His father was listed as John Pask, a Cheesemonger. Harriett Lander was a Widow of full age residing at Bow Street. Her father was listed as William Hughes a Tailor.

Further investigations are required, as it is still difficult to determine which of the eighteen John Pask born c1780s, currently in the database, is John's father.
