I looked for the entry on freebmd and checked the image on the GRO index there. |

The thing is that the original displayed on Ancestry is what would have been completed at the time by the person conducting the ceremony, the bride and groom and the witnesses. |

As the GRO index is for March 1928 the date could not have been 26th April 1928. It looks like the one displayed on Ancestry was the original but information was found to be wrong and then corrected on the GRO master. I presume you have a PDF of the details rather than a certificate which being a legal document should not have alterations. |

Gwyn, No it's been altered so you can hardly read it, but can't understand why? The date looks like it's been changed from 26th April 1928, the profession has been changed to Attendent and the address has been changed from 47 ? road to 26 Hearne Rd which is on the registrar's record? |

That seems very strange, Kim. |

I found a marriage on Ancestry, the registrar's copy for Alfred Sidney Stratton to Dorothy Violet Cockman, you can read it quite clearly but thought I would purchase from the GRO, as it's for a friends tree. The GRO cert has arrived, the date has been erased and re-entered, his profession has been erased and re entered and his address has been erased and re entered? is the normal? |
