Marriage Look Up
« on: Tuesday 21 February 17 23:29 GMT (UK) »
Can anyone help with a marriage for Harry or Henry McKenzie Simpson & Winifred Alice Davis c 1930??
Harry/ Henry was born in 1903 in Helensburgh, Dunbartonshire but I think Winifred was English.
The first born child was born in Lewisham, London, which makes me think that's where she came from.  I have found one born in 1904 in Lewisham, which would fit in with the date.

Marriages March qtr 1930   
Winifred A Davis / Harry M Simpson    Lewisham    1d   1395    
 
You will need to buy the cert as online marriages do not cover that far

Have you looked for them on the 1939 register to establish her birthdate?

If she died from 1969 onwards her full birthdate will be shown on her death reg

Many thanks CaroleW for your help.  I've been looking for them for a long time.  Their youngest child was born in Leeds so Doncaster fits in.
