Hi,

As an option to using the GRO you can order the certificate from Lancs BMD - lancashirebmd.org.uk

Their reference is ROW/134/106.

I think I am right in saying it isn't available to view on-line because it is a register office rather than a church wedding,

Alan

It looks like my original thoughts that Elizabeth Hilton married William James Wright have been well and truly shot down.    johnhood and Tall Al have said all along that it was James Johnson she married and from what I have discovered they have been proved correct. On Ancestry there is a Public Member Tree called "Fillingham Family Tree" and pretty much all the same information I have been given here is on there. The icing on the cake though to finally convince me is the fact that I have now got a Death Certificate for Elizabeth. My cousin has been looking through a box of old photo's and post cards that belonged to my grandfather and she found it there.  Tall Al was spot on when he said she could have died in 1941 in the Biggleswade district. She died 9th May 1941 at Three Counties Emergency Hospital in Stotfold. Her daughter-in-law Ann Johnson was present at her death.  It also shows the address that Ann lived in, in Arlesey, but I don't know if I am allowed to give that information on this site. All I have to do now is find out which son married Ann and I can progress my tree some more. Any Takers?? ;D
Thanks everyone

Hi,

You will find this has already been answered by John in his reply on 27 October -

"In 1939 war register Elizabeth is with her son James and his wife (Ann Cockburn) married 1933 Wigan"

Tall Al, I remember reading that now that you have pointed it out, but there was that much information coming at the time it just slipped my mind. Thank you

johnhood,  Thank you.

 I have learned a lot about how to go about doing family history through this post, which sites to visit for information and records etc. I just hope I can put all that information to good use.
Thanks to everyone who posted
