You need to learn to use the FreeBMD site. It's free and easy to use. This is the URL:

The marriage is on there which will also answer your other question.

Certs can be purchased at the GRO and will cost £7 if you order on line.

Good luck

Llewella - whilst it's very lovely of you to find info for Linda - and I'm sure Linda is extremely grateful - Linda can look at sites like FreeBMD - and being a bit of a newby she does need to learn how to use FreeBMD and Familysearch ...

I gave her the web address, checked the info was on there and was rather hoping she'd go and find the info herself ...

Never mind.

(I'm not having a go at you by the way, just trying to help a newby find some info for herself ...)
