Married 5 Jun 1897 St. Mary of Charity Church, Faversham, Kent, England - From PR entry (image on FMP, viewed 28 Nov 2016)
Shows William Powell, aged 25, Bachelor, Labourer, residence at time of marriage: 38 Cyprus Road, father: William Powell, a Labourer married
Mary Goatham, aged 23, Spinster, [no occupation given], residence at time of marriage: 23 Orchard Place, father: William Goatham, Mariner.
Married by Banns, both signed, as did witnesses, John Henry Powell and Elizabeth Emma Powell.
Mary's grandfather was William Goatham but he was not a Mariner; I suspect she was thinking of her step-father William Pysing, but omitting to mention he was her step-father, not her father, and so that he had a different surname.
