Wells: George 1872, Frank 1840, William 1810
|
My great grandparents Frank William Wells and Mary Watson Oxford married according to GRO Dec 1866 Medway 2a 779.
Frank was born in Brompton, Gillingham and Mary was born in Rochester. Frank was Wesleyan Methodist and she was C of E.
I have looked on Cityark for their marriage in the following parishes: Rochester, Gillingham, Chatham, Brompton, Frindsbury and Strood. Where else can I look 
Any suggestions most welcome

Hello Di
Have you checked the following registration districts of Medway?
http://www.ukbmd.org.uk/genuki/reg/districts/medway.html
You can order the cert online at
http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/
As Jan mentions the marriage cert would be very helpful

Hi Jan and Wendy
Thanks for your suggestions.
Looks like I'll be sending for the certificate  I'm just being a cheapskate. I have managed to find quite a few ancestors on Cityark and like seeing the actual entries and the signatures when it is a marriage.

I agree. It gets expensive after a while but I don't really mind for direct ancestors. All adds up to fleshing out someone's life.
