|Robert Roberts, Lockport, Niagara. New York
« on: Tuesday 17 October 06 20:23 BST (UK) »
I have found a Robert Roberts on the 1930, 1920 and 1910, census and feel possibly maybe he could be my grand uncle, he was married between 1901 and 1905 to Annie, they had a daughter Elizabeth 1906, is there
 any way I could get a copy marriage certificate, and would the certificate show his parents names (as they do here in UK)
Regards
Margaret

A death certificate would  more likely show the names of the parents, if, the informant knows those names.  The informant could be the wife, or any other relative or person that might be around when the death occurred.

A marriage certificate would more likely show the bride and groom's name, the witnesses names, and the name of the person performing the ceremony.  A license would give the name of the parents, if the person getting married was underage and needed the permission of the parents to get married.
