Guernesey military puzzle, help needed please
« on: Saturday 18 July 15 15:46 BST (UK) »
Hello you clever people  ;D I have an ancestor Robert Lawrence who was based on Guernsey between November 1878 and December 1883 so far I have been unable to find him on the 1881 census any ideas on how to proceed on this ?
Also I know he married Phoebe Blake at St Peter Port on Guernsey on 27 October 1881 (this information came from his Attestation form of 1861) however it only gives their names and the date and place of marriage not their marital status, fathers names and occupations or witnesses. Is there any way to find this out with out sending for a marriage certificate? If not how would I go about sending for this document please? 
I realise this is a lot of questions and will be very grateful to any one who can shed any light on this little mystery for me.
Many thanks in advance
