Catholic marriage certificate

[JenB]

Do I just have the registration?

Sorry, I'm not clear what you mean.

You can purchase the certificate online via either Sunderland Registrars
https://www.sunderland.gov.uk/article/12356/Copies-of-birth-death-and-marriage-certificates

or the GRO https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/Login.asp

in either case it costs £11.00.

I assumed I had the marriage certificate already, would this be different then?

Do you mean the document you reproduced at the start of this thread?

That isn't the marriage certificate. That simply the parish record made by the priest at the Roman Catholic Church where they married.

The full civil certificate should show whether or not Bridget was a widow at the time of the marriage
so might explain the discrepancy between her surname at marriage and that of her father.

Ahh okay, thanks for your help, appreciate it.

It would also show if Michael was a widower and if he is the chap with the children in 1871 -and then linked to the Irish records.

So, don't hesitate, buy it

Thanks both. I've ordered it.

I also ordered what I think is Michael's death certificate hoping it would give his address or mention Bridget. No luck

He was working at South Pontop Colliery when he died, http://www.dmm.org.uk/individ0/i05087.htm
so he'd have been living in the Annfield Plain area https://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore/side-by-side/#zoom=15&lat=54.85787&lon=-1.74811&layers=6&right=BingHyb

(trivia moment  my father was born just over the road from South Pontop Colliery)

Actually that does help confirm what I have a bit, I have census records showing they had a child born in 1876 in Annfield Plain so that would make sense! Thanks 

I've never even been to the North East but have quite a lot of ancestors from up that way.
