This image is of Archer Copley and Cissie Spencer on their Wedding Day in Sheffield in 1916.

In 1901 and 1911 (Census Returns) Cissie (Dorothy Mabel) Spencer's family home was at 149 Walkley Lane, Sheffield. Archer's family home in 1911 (Census Return) was nearby at 171 Providence Road, Sheffield.

I speculate that the couple are pictured outside Cissie’s family home.

The image is classic postcard size with the imprint "The Arcade Studio, 380 Regent Rd., Salford" on the back. Also on the back written in ink is:

"Cissie Spencer married to Archie Copley of Sheffield"

and then in pencil:

"Cissie was daughter of Mary Ann (Polly) Roper (sister to Beatrice Amelia & Frank Roper)."


The Roper family hailed from Winster, Derbyshire.
