Looking at the image, I would say the second letter is definitiely W - the letters come AFTER the Street address - not before. The inference is that it's an area |

If he was born in 1842, how was he described as of 'full' age when he married in 1861? |

He must have fibbed - perhaps because he didn't have parental consent to marry. |

I don't know what the initials stand for, but they definitely denote the area in which the street was. |

If the middle initial is an "H" it could possibly be Barking Havering and Redbridge. This comes up if you do a google search for the initials. |
