WETTON AND MISS AGNES [sic] CRIMES [PHOTOGRAPH] The wedding took place at St. Barnabas's Church, Crewe on Saturday of Mr. Graham Jenkins Wetton, only son of Mr. and Mrs. H Wetton, 117, Walthall-street, and Miss Anne Crimes, foster-daughter of Mrs. R.

The information that Anne was fostered is consistent with the 1939 Register where she was living with the family of Lawrence and Rose Heath at 28 Ramsbottom Street.
