I can't see a relevant birth in England or Wales,you may have to buy the marriage cert ,for £9-25 from the GRO to confirm his details,hopefully including his father's name.

Thank you for your help with information on Aaron Machin I am now trying to find more information on his brothers and sisters. One sister was called Plancina, she married Carrahar and I think they had a child also called Plancina from the BMD records. There was also brothers Jonah and George. If anyone has any further information this would be greatly received.

There is a birth in Dec 1911 for an Arthur Machin in Congleton with a mother's maiden name of Harding,which seems to be the Aaron you are searching for.

Hi. My gran was Plancina Carrahar maiden name Machin from Congleton. She married my grandad James Carrahar who was a lorry driver from Sandbach. Cheshire. They lived in Sandbach and had numerous children including my mum Gladys Carrahar. My grandad James Carrahar was a descendent if an Irish immigrant family who moved to Cheshire from County Monaghan via Liverpool during the potato famine. I understand that my gran Plancina was from a family of builders in Congleton.
