Thanks Jen and Jan,
Silly me, put the wrong dates in! See why I need your help I need your eyes for things I miss. So if I purchase that it will give me what I need to know about John? That's the one I found and dismissed. Mary`s mother was married their in 1828 that's why I thought it was correct.

I will order it tomorrow. Is speedy delivery very expensive? Don't know if I can wait 3 weeks.

Jan I am tempted to get the Tunbridge death cert 1870 but perhaps should see marriage cert first?
It's only money! Just spent £180 on hubbies birthday    without flinching, why not round it about to 200!

The marriage certificate might tell you his age - on the other hand it might just say 'full age' i.e. over 21.

It should tell you his father's name - unless he was illegitimate and didn't know what it was.

It will give you his occupation.

You will have to decide whether it's a chance worth taking.

He could have died anywhere. The Tunbridge one might be correct - and it might not. Personally I'd wait and get the marriage certificate first.

[groom]

So if I purchase that it will give me what I need to know about John?

As Jen said it's a gamble, you could be lucky and get age, father and a family member as a witness, or you might get Full Age, no father and a member of the church as a witness

IF it gives his age and that fits with the age of death of the one who died in Tunbridge, then you could get that certificate. Again if you are lucky, Mary may have registered the death. Of all the deaths I saw, that looks the most probable to me, as Mary was there a few months later.

[groom]

I will order it tomorrow. Is speedy delivery very expensive? Don't know if I can wait 3 weeks.

Priority orders £23.40. They are despatched the following working day if you order before 4pm, so one ordered tomorrow should be despatched Friday.

Standard ones are despatched on the fourth working day from receipt of order, or the fifteenth working day when no reference number is quoted. You have the reference number so it shouldn't take much longer than a week to reach you.

I will take a chance and order the marriage cert and pray it will have what I need
I agree the death cert can wait. One thing at a time.

Will keep you posted. Any other info you can find will be gratefully received.

On a different note my youngest son is giving me first grandson, just found out its a boy, calling him William after my wonderful  father on the left. When he told me I cried, gramps would have been so proud he would also loved how much we have all found out about his beloved Redmans. He would have loved rootschat.

Congratulations.


I don't think there is much more we can do for the moment until we know what is on the marriage certificate.

And thanks to everyone else as well. Yes not much to do until get cert. All this has given me a boost and the baby news. It has taken mind of hubbies probs. I am thinking positive now.
