Thank you ,Tropical,Cando,AND Robert Coble for your helpful information regarding marriage certs.
I have now sent off for a transcription and have discovered how to access the Aus electoral roll on Ancestry which has come up with some answers.
So THANKS to all you good people.

Having found the couples names and date of marriage in NSW in 1911,I would like to know what other information would be on the marriage cert if I purchased one.  Would it have   the father's names and their occupations?
If the Groom became a Doctor of Med ,
 is there a place where his educational background and parentage would be recorded ?  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks Prue, very helpful. Found him on the Nubia. Have not managed to find his DAD. Guess more tricky ,when I have not got a starting point.
The site was good with a few other sites as well ,which will be handy

Much appreciated,
Diinsussex----ex aussie,though visiting after Christmas,looking forward to that!

Hi Stewart,
Your very helpful. I will give this person a ring and see if they can look into the problem. I did visit Victoria college a number of years ago,when I was just starting out on my research. I think it was school holidays  and I think it was a nice 'ol caretaker  who showed us the Gt Hall  and the prize award boards up on the wall--where I was able to see  Alfred delisle Hammond--son of Rev JNH,written on several boards--bit of a clever chap!
At the time I did not realize that finding this second  marriage was going to present a problem. When I could not find it in CI-- I then searched in Eng. Then in Sydney and in New Zealand as Alfred eventually went to Australia in 1875.He left Cambridge early (the smell of gold in Aust)--He completed his degree at the relatively new Sydney Uni.
My thought was that JNH would have remarried before Alfred left--but that's just a guess. Alfred went on to become head master of a school in NZ.and later returned to Australia. The ships lists are not very clear as to whether 
his father paid a visit--I need to look at those again.
The other thought, which I must ask the Librarian--Was the 'TEMPLE' at Vict college used as a chapel and if so might it have been used for  a marriage?
It is a mystery. Do you know if there ARE parish registers that have been lost.
Thanks again for all your help.I will let you know how I get on.
