Hall/Elliott Marriage Brighton m1835

[gaygirl]

Is there any way I can find out details on the marriage of Charles Hall and Leonora Elliott.  at St Nicholas church 6th August 1835 in brighton.
I realise I cannot get a certificate but where could I find out details of this couple - e.g. parents, occupations, ages etc.   Not sure if there are any options.

Getting the Marriage Cert will give you a starting place to look for other information, it will give you their fathers names and occupations.

On the IGI I found the following:-

LUCY ANNA MARIA HALL

Parents:
  Father:  CHARLES HALL  
  Mother:  LEONORA

LEONORA HALL

Birth:  06 JAN 1841    
Christening:  07 JAN 1849   All Souls, Saint Marylebone, London, England

MARY SWAINE HALL

Many thanks for the info you sent.
Can you get a marriage certificate for 1835??  I didnt think they were available.    What about directly from the church records??

You are right as far as I know, 1835  Civil certs are not available, but the parish records would still have the Fathers names and ages should be there, I wonder if someone in the Brighton area may be able to help you further...
Entries in Parish Marriage registers here contain the following information: -   As well as the bride and grooms name and age at time of marriage, Fathers name ( sometimes the mothers but thats only a lucky bonus) address at time of marriage and of course the witnesses.... I have found entires for that era here and its nearly always a close relative that acts as a witness so it tends to give you another name to look out for...
I live in Ireland so not much help.... but the best of luck in your search

Happy Hunting
