Hello,
I have Frederick Pearce b. c1839 Derby and Sarah Ann Unknown b. c1836 Forest of Dean, Gloucester, but as yet have not been able to pin down the marriage.
Would appreciate any thoughts you may have?
Many thanks
Kim

Maybe they didn't marry. A suprising number of couples lived together.

Hi Chris Ho:)
No I haven't found the right one as yet, so I don't have a certificate at the moment.
Hoping you could help?

Might be worth a check too on 'Search All Trees' here, if you already haven't, could be Frederick (down as Fredrick 1873 Wednesbury)
