Hello all.

I have a copy of a birth certificate of a relative, Thomas Edwin Potter, born 10 January 1849, address, 20 Victory Row, Stepney, Mile End Old Town, Middlesex. Father William Potter, mother Maria Potter, (formerly Lester). Williams occupation, Dyer.

I'd like to ask someone if they could verify a marriage for me for William and Maria, before I send for the marriage certificate.

I have looked on freebmd and there is a marriage for William Potter and Maria Lusty, March quarter of 1843 in Stepney vol 2 page 356.

Is it possible that this could be the same couple as her name is Lusty and not Lester?

Just wanted a bit of help with clarification please, many thanks.
