Marriage of Walter Blurton Keen
« on: Sunday 26 August 12 00:17 BST (UK) »
After a bit of internet searching I came across a marriage in 1905 between Walter Blurton Keen and Annie Porter in Winnipeg. I was wondering if anyone knew how (and if it is possible) for a UK resident to obtain a copy of the marriage certificate.

Thanks

Thank you for the link.

Do you happen to know if they are willing to mail to UK. Can't see anywhere on form where I can put UK as address rather than Canada?

Thanks again  :)

I'm sorry but I don' t know whether they would mail a cert to the UK, although I can't see why they wouldn't. There is a contact email address on the order form (upper R corner) so perhaps you might write and ask them?

I think there's really just an oversight in the top part of the form where it says Province, Postal Code.

If you look in the "rush service" section there is information about mailing to an international address, and a space for entering Country.

I'd just put your country where it says Province in the upper section of the form when you order, and include your own country postal code.

MONCK?

1911 Dauphin Manitoba census they have a son Walter! Says 1889 immigration date http://www.automatedgenealogy.com/census11/SplitView.jsp?id=64820 Hit links to see them in 1906 just prior to his birth

This may be Walter in 1901 but this says 1878 as immigration date
