On all the other records on the page there is the date of the marriage, against this one it says expired, so maybethey didn't marry at all.

my great grandfather was born in 1871/1872 marylebone in london. in the 1911 census he is listed with his wife and 6 children, but i cannot trace his marriage to annie mclauchlan or find when he died, any help or sense of direction would be fantastic as i have searched and searched and still not getting anywhere, much appreciated for any feedback
