If you Google Woonton by the time you get to about page five or six there are mention of businesses by that name and someone on Facebook too.

If you Google Woonton Genealogy and look through a few pages you also have some possible links including this one.

Yes Jill.. guess that will be the ultimate option.. hope it's better than the last one, a 1955 marriage where the groom was estranged from his parents & left their names off.. drat, foiled again !

If PricklyHolly is right you can spend a lot of time - years maybe, looking for her so the marriage cert is going to be the quickest option if you absolutely need to find her.

I took a look at Woonton on FreeBMD. You can see a few clusters of the name but the name doesn't seem to be indiginous to one particular area.

Hope you find her.

Perhaps she had been married before and Woonton was not her maiden name.

Hi there.. I've a mystery Brides.. wondered if there is any way to get a lead on who her parents were, aside from, perhaps, her Marriage cert..
She is Sonia M ( or N) Woonton married a Ralph G Tilton in Oct/Dec 1977. Registered in Bristol/Gloucestershire.
I've not found her in any Woonton Tree etc or found any birth record.
Thanks all.. Wayne
