Find Ancestors

Please can you help? I have been searching unsuccessfully for the marriage of Edward Seymour to Gertrude Mabel Lamont for a year now. Gertrude was also known as Mabel but I cannot find anything under either name. She was born in 1893 and I have found her on 1911 census still living at home and unmarried. Have tried Emerald Ancestors, LDS sites, Ancestry etc with no luck. Any help welcome or advice on where to look next.
Cath

wonder if this is a relative of hers?

AoGG,
I dont think it is a relative. Gertrude had many siblings but none named Catherine.
She was the daughter of Andrew and Mary Lamont and I have found her on census living in Cambrai Street. Marriage must have been afer 1911 as she is single on census.

is that, your tree on ancestry.
mabels parents.
andrew lamont,
mary dallas?

Aogg,
that marriage looks like a possible.I know they went on to have 4 children:
Roy, Irene, Stanley and Desmond. Thank you for helping.

Alan
Yes that would be them.

im glad,
but is that your tree?

Yes it is Alan.

thanx cath,
coz i was about to send you details, it being her second marriage etc.
cant find them on ancestry or family search, will look on other sites, but wont promise anything.
regards alan

Thanks Alan. I didn't realise it was a second marriage, maybe thats where I've been going wrong.

sorry cath,
its martha service on her second marriage. unless i read it wrong again.
alan

Alan thanks for trying to help. I'm grateful for any help at all.
Will carry on looking tomorrow.
Cath.

sorry cath,
ive tried various sites, but nothing.
are you in ireland or england?
coz surely there must be a BMD office in belfast.
it could be worth looking into, best of luck.

alan

Alan,many thanks for your efforts. I'm in Channel Islands which makes visiting records office impossible.

If they didn't married until after 1921 you will not get their marriage on line

Maura very many thanks for this info. Burial looks promising so will check it out.

Maura thank you for your help. While I still cannot find the marriage, I have today been able to confirm the burial is my Mabel so I now know what area to focus my search in.

Would it be safe to assume that Robert Edwin Seymour and Margaret Seymour both of 19 Alliance avenue would be Mabels sister in law and nephew as they are all buried in same plot?

The conventional calculation of dob for Mabel, Margt, Robt from the cemetery gives 1893, 1877, 1895.
The census gives mother Margt 1878 and son Robt 1896.

I would guess they're Mabel's ma-in-law & bro-in-law.
