We will need more info before anyone can help
Christian names, dates etc - but remember not to post anything about anyone still living.
What sort of info are you looking for?
Assuming it is geneological then have you found Births/Marriages/deaths for the people on FreeBMD? Have you bought certs to find their parents? Once back to 1911 have you checked that census for them?

Hi as you have the marriage cert, what were the ages of the couple, and the occupation of Frederick William?

As I said about not posting about livingpeople in myprevious post, I am assuming therefore that Annie is now deceased.

This looks a possible for the parents marriage-
Jan/Feb/MAr 1916 Bingham Nottingham ref 7b 863
Frederick W H Morgan / Charlotte R Burton
(the cross ref against Charlottes is misindexed Horgan, so they do not immediately link on Ancestry)

Getting the marriage cert to see if Frederick's occupation ties in with that stated on Annie's marriage cert would help you confirm if this is him or not.

Then, looking at births, there are numerous ones with surname Morgan and Mums Maiden name Burton - I wont post as they may still be alive.
There are some in Bingham, and then some in other parts of the country. So either the couple moved around a lot, or there are probably two Morgan/Burton couples around.

However, one birth is of an Annie E Morgan, mums maiden name Burton in Jan/Feb/MAr 1924 in Biggleswade
- does this age tie up with her age at marriage?
Getting the birth cert, and again comparing the detials about Frederick to the marriage, will help indicate if we are on the right lines.

And do any of the witnesses at her marriage look like rellies? E.g the possible siblings from the birth index.

Another line of enquiry would be to look for Frederick H W's death and then for a Will - is Annie named in that? If named as Mrs Stone then that pieces it altogether.

Hopefully this has got you started.

This is your other thread about this family
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=537193.new#new

As there are no replies on there, I have linked it to this one and suggested that the thread continues here (hope that is OK, Mods.)

I see on there you say Frederick W H was a nursery foreman.
So you can see if the Frederick W H who married Charlotte Burton was anyhing in that line, and if the father of the Annie E bn Biggleswade was a Frederick W H who was also something in that line.
