Marriage records on Familysearch.
« on: Wednesday 01 February 17 12:23 GMT (UK) »
Can anyone help me find the marriage of Frank Robertson and Mary Dorrington?
They were a Catholic family from Strand, Somerset West, Cape Province. Frank was born c.1879 in Ireland.
They had Five children; George, Michael, Patrick, Ivy and Joseph. I know that Ivy was born in 1910, so I assume they married before then?
Are the unindexed Cape province marriage records on Familysearch complete?
Any help would be great!

Hi
The marriage records on-line are from the following collections:
- Civil Marriages - ie not in a church -
- Anglican church - some parishes some years
- DRC - some parishes some years
- Methodist Church - some parishes some years

Given this is a Catholic family they were probably married in the Catholic Church - there do not appear to be any Catholic Church records for Somerset West in the familysearch.org catalogue so most likely you will need to contact the relevant parishes directly for information - try google to find them
