18 April 1853 - William Wagg and Sarah Turner are married!
On this day 164 years ago, a 27 year old William Wagg married a 20 year old Sarah Turner at Saint James King Street Sydney. So this is very much the start of our Webb Wagg story!
No photos of the wedding but we do have two precious momentos - the marriage registration and the photo of William and Sarah taken in about 1903.

I've located a drawing of St James from around 1842 along with the banner from the Sydney Morning Herald on 18 April 1853.
