Alfred Lennon marries Julia Stanley

On 3 December 1938 Alfred Lennon married Julia Stanley at the Mount Pleasant Registry Office (the same place where John Lennon & Cynthia Powell got married 24 years later).

They had not informed their family, only Alf's brother Sydney was invited as a witness. A cinema usherette was Julia's witness.

After the ceremony they all went to Reece's, a restaurant in Clayton Square. The restaurant was demolished when they built the Clayton Shopping Centre.Funnily, this is the same place where John took Cynthia after they got married.
