Looking for some info on the Procter family Luton i believe. Mainly for a Eileen or vera Proctor who married a William Eric Gurney in Luton in 1935. Any info on her parents or siblings would be helpful Thankyou.

The marriage is in the gro indexes, free to search on FreeBMD

Marriage

A copy of the marriage cert would give you her fathers name and occupation

Looks like the 1911 posting is not the right family as Sidney Proctor married MAry Evelyn Dyer.  And that child is Vera Evelyn

the one we want is Vera Connie, with a mum with maiden name Inns
