I have been in touch with a relative who has a cpoy of Huberts marrige and they have sent me a copy
and this is what is on it

1869 Eigh Brook Chaple Counties of Hereford and Monmouth 16th March 1869

Hubert Hiles Firkins age 27 Bachelor Profession General Labourer, Residence Holmer Parish of Holmer Herefordshire Fathers name James Hiles

Ann Brooks age 27 Spinster Residence Holmer Parish of Holmer Herefordshire Fathers name John Brooks

This marriage was solemnized between us
X the mark of Hubert Hiles Firkins Ann Brooks

In the presence of X John Firkins X Susan Firkins

(This seems to be getting more complicated to me)

This appears to be Hubert's marriage, just a pity that both females have similar names. It would be interesting to see who he named as his father.

Are you sure it say's Oonas? I can't find any reference to him at all. How come the child was a Firkins if his parents were married and named Tranter?
