Mariage Certificate

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

Hi All

I am looking for the marriage certificate of

HELEN ROBERTSON and THOMAS HENDERSON.

They married in 1869 i believe on November 26th in Scotland i believe. I think Helen was born about 1848?? and unfortunately i have no idea about Thomas. The only other details i have about them is that they had a daughter approximately in 1883/4 adn she was named Christina and born in Ceres Fife.

I was wondering if anyone knew if a marriage certificate would say their birthdates. I think it would at least give the peoples parents names this way then hopefulyl i can trace birth certificates etc.

much appreciated

love

Samantha

There are a few Thomas's born in Fife around that time. This one was born in Ceres but you would be best going to Scotlandspeople and looking at the marriage certificate.
