If you can find them on FreeBMD it should give you several options for marriage partners - find them on a census following the marriage and you can make an educated guess as to whom they married - assuming this occured before 1901 Charlotte

Betty You missed the vital information - when and where did these marriages take place? If they were before 1901 in England/Wales you should be able to check using the census. Freebmd often has all the people on a page, but you still don't know who married whom. Later on, there's just one or two couples per page which makes it easier to find. After 1910 its much harder. Before 1837 you can use parish records. nell

Hi Andrew, Thanks for your help, I didn't know that I would have to order the marriage certificate, why is that?. The other marriages certificate I sent for I was able to check the husband and had his name before I sent for certificate, I was able to find the husband. If I go on like this all the family's have about 9/10 children plus parents marriages it will cost hundreds of pounds for all these certificates. i just want info on name of person they married and the year and date. Betty Sorry going to have to go to bed it's 6:40am, been trying to check these marriages all night. Will check any messages in the afternoon, thanks in advance.

The only way to find out is to order the marriage certificate!

I have ten children in one family. Do I have to send for all the marriage certificates to find out who they married. I have checked two but neither has there partners name. All I really want is the marriage details not the certificates. Betty
