But Catherine, how can Janette buy the marriage certificate when we can't find any record of it?

Researching:
Great grandmother Dorothy Bean nee Abbott (1858-1908)

Janette,
Where exactly was Alfred born?

I've had a look for a marriage for Alfred Ford and Alice Turton, but can't see anything. When were they married?

If you buy their marriage cert. then this should give you Alfred's father's name and occupation, which will help find him in the census records. It will also give you the address he was living at, at the time of the marriage and witnesses names who may be siblings.
