Marriages December qtr 1910   
William J Burgess   Newport M.  11a 467   
Catherine A Burke    Newport M.  11a 467

What is his birthplace and birthyear? There are lots of William John Burgess births on freebmd so you will need to supply more info

Where and when was Catherine born?

A copy of the marriage cert will give his age and his fathers name

Was the Emma Kathleen Burgess who died in 2003 married or single??

Unless you know the answer - you will need to buy a copy of her death cert which will show her maiden name if she was married
