You would need a birth cert to confirm his parents, his marriage cert should name his father but it isn't gauranteed.

You would need to either apply to the local reg office for his birth cert or trawl the GRO index and order via the GRO.

Lancashire has a searchable bmd index, not yet complete but worth a look.

Hannah
Have you used lancsbmd ?
It's free and easy to use.
Just had a look and it shows quite a few of the marriages that might be of interest or confirmation to your research,
Best wishes Joan
