West Bromwich - Marriage Look Up
« on: Wednesday 08 October 14 11:16 BST (UK) »
Is there anyone who could look up the marriage of John Francis Lamb and Florence Annie Williams in 1889 West Bromwich?  I need to know the name of his father as I am not entirely sure I have the right person .

According to later censuses, that John Francis Lamb was born in 1864, in either Birmingham (1901 and 1911) or West Bromwich (1891) - although that last birthplace was ditto'ed from the line above.

If they were married in a register office, or non-conformist, you will have to buy the marriage certificate, in order to see his father's name.


Possible birth:
September qtr 1863
Aston district     vol 62, page 266

Lamb, John Francis
Garrad (Suffolk, Essex, Somerset), Crocker (Somerset), Vanstone (Devon, Jersey), Sims (Wiltshire), Bridger (Kent)

Unfortunately the marriage isnt popping up on any of the free sites so you might have to buy either the marriage or birth certificate but his parents arent John and Harriet Lamb in Birmingham - their son is John Joseph

The West Midlands BMD index shows that the marriage was at West Bromwich Register Office, so unfortunately the only way to see the details is by buying the certificate.
