Hello,
Yes, the William Holmes who died 8 September 1928 is the one I am looking for.

The marriage certificate for William and Martha does not ask for place of birth. It does ask for the names of the Father's names and the Father's occupations. They are Joseph Holmes, Miner and George Ladhams Brickmaker. Their mother's are Harriet Bradshaw and Mary Ann Ayres.

Their witnesses are Mary H(?) James. The name of the second witness is very hard to read. It may be Alice Iduce. Now that I have spent some time looking at witness signature 2 I wonder if the first name is Lettice!

The marriage certificate has Martha listed as a widow and they were married by special licence. There is also a note at the bottom of the marriage certificate to read Martha Elizabeth Ladhams in column 8 as Martha Elizabeth Jorgensen.

Cheers
Jean
