That is all fantastic stuff - I didn't expect this degree of help - and so quickly.
Thanks to all of you for taking the trouble to make these discoveries and pass them on.  Taken together they give me a much fuller picture of the family OLIVER in the 19th century.


Thanks again for your help.

I now have the marriage certificate for

William OLIVER m Louisa Maria MURCH   10 Jan 1866

The fathers were:

Henry OLIVER  Cordwainer

Henry MURCH   Carpenter


The witnesses:   Henry MURCH & Maria MURCH - presumably father & mother


Coming back to this search after diversions elsewhere... I wonder if anyone has any suggestions/discoveries on the identities of any of the parents.

The military record for Henry MURCH apparently does not mention his wife/children but does confirm the carpenter link - Broad Cist, Devon. 
Any info on wife 'Maria' - or is it 'Harriet Maria' after all? 
Presumably Henry Murch (with Maria) returns to Bristol/Devon after discharge and appears on census/death records post 1858?

Is there any info on spouse/other family of Henry OLIVER, Cordwainer of Marylebone ?
