Devon Marriages - THOMAS
« on: Thursday 28 January 16 20:03 GMT (UK) »
Hello - I'm hoping there will be some info on my great grandfather's marriage that will help me determine his parents, as there are only question marks on his death certificate.

The marriage happened in March of 1878 in Barnstaple.  He married a Jane Arthur Fry.  If you could provide me with witnesses names, or (high hopes here) father's name if listed I'd be very appreciative.

To find that information you will probably have to buy the marriage certificate from the GRO.

You did!  Sincere apologies, I should've used the search first.
