I have a copy of the certificate of marriage between Elizabeth Alice LANGLER and
Stephen William YOLLAND who married on 9 April 1891 at Ashburton Parish Church.
The certificate lists George LANGLER, Saddler of Ashburton, as her father.

They had only one daughter, Winifred Alice YOLLAND, born 18 July 1893, who
subsequently married Reginald Arnold GILLARD in Bristol in the April/June Qr of 1917

I would very much like to find out if there are any descendants of this latter
marriage, and make contact with Stephen Langler.
