Can anyone please help. I am trying to trace the marriage of John HICKMAN b 1831 at GORNAL. to Hannah. It is not Hannah Malpass as I have that marriage certificate and they are too young and actually appear separately to the one I am tracing in the Census records.( I do have full access to Ancestry but still cannot locate them.)
John and Hannah are the parents of my great grandfather Thomas and they moved to Pilsley, Derbys abt 1870: they do appear in the 1871 Census there. I have checked free BMD and GRO records from 1850 to 1856 but still cannot find the marriage. Is my only recourse to try and obtain the birth certificate of Thomas HICKMAN, the second born of this marriage, and my great grandfather, and find Hannahs maiden name from that,Or does someone have the information I desire. Also I now have a marriage certificate on offer for the HICKMAN/ MALPASS marriage in 1861 for descendants.
Thanks in anticipation TrevorPaul
