Singing in The Choir

Congregational Church c1955
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

My parents, Harry and Nancy were married in this Congregational Church and I was a Sunday School Teacher and sang tenor in the choir in the late fifties before going to university. It has a splendid organ with a triumphant tuba stop that David Jones the organist used to good effect in blazing out the melody over new harmonies in the hymn-singing.

RE: RE: Singing in The Choir

My great-grandparents, John Sharman and Hannah Etty were married in Wellingborough in 1880. I believe this was the church. Is this possible? Was the church there in 1880? Is it still there today? I would love to find out more information.
