Marriage certificate details
« on: Tuesday 16 September 08 09:28 BST (UK) »
Is there a website that has marriage certificate details (names/parent's names) or do I have to order the certificate from the GRO to get those?

Thanks

Hi
If you know the church where they married you can look at the register which will have the same details but if not then getting the certificate is the only option usually.  Only the father's name is given - not both parents.

Hi Andrea

Thanks for that, I don't know the church only the area (Hunslet) so I'll have to order the certificate.
