As a matter of interest what certificates have you ordereSS

This enquiry is for my friend and at the moment she is at work, we shall post on Wedneday which is her first opportunity to concentrate on family history.  Thank you for all your help I have noted everything down that has been suggested.  I think one certificate was for Ramon Steen's birth and the other is a marriage certificate.

The certificates have arrived.
Firstly
Birth Certificate
Ramon Steen born 7th July 1933 Inverkeithing Fife.
Parents Campbell Steen and Rachel Erskine Cation Steen m.s. Brodie.
Marriage Certificate
17th June 1952 St. Giles Edinburgh
Ramon Steen m Mary Waters Prior Kinnoch.
Interestingly and the information on the reverse of the certificate states
Corrected Entries
9th July 1964 Decree of Divorce pronounced.
Mary Waters Prior Kinnoch or Steen 16 Craigmiller Castle Terrace Edinburgh against
Ramon Steen (otherwise Ramon Campbell Steen or Ramond Moir Steen) at present in H.M. Prison Armley Leeds 12.
We are still trying to find a marriage between 1957/8 and 1962 when Ramon Steen appears in court for bigamy.

An update for everyone.
We have found the bigamous marriage in 1961.  Thank you SS your hunch was correct.
He was using an assumed name but still used his middle name.  Raymond Moir Rickard instead of Ramon Moir Steen.  He said he was 24 years old not 27 years old.  Strangely he gave his father as Campbell Moir Rickard.  Fancy using his fathers correct christian names.
We are still awaiting the National Archives documents which will not be available until April.
Thank you for everyone's help.
