Hi all

I have Thomas Huckstep married to Maria (surname unknown) and i'm trying to find their marriage cert as i believe Maria may have been born in Delhi India as the 1881 census records states born there

the 1871 census however shows where born - not known

Thomas was born in around 1830 in Kent according to census in 1881 showing him as age 51

Maria was born around 1827

very grateful for assistance
