Is this a possibility?????? Surname First name(s) Spouse District Vol Page -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Marriages Dec 1919 (87%) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- >>>>Darch John E H Stockford Chipping N. 3a 2902 Dore George W Fisher Chipping N. 3a 2902 Fisher Jane Dore Chipping N. 3a 2902 >>>>Stockford Lily Darch Chipping N. 3a 2902 - - - Freebmd doesn't go much after 1915/1920 ......... and that means that whoever is doing the searching for you has to search quarter by quarter year by year on the Complete Index on ancestry. It's boring and tedious to do that, even for your own family!!! So it is a lot to ask someone else to go trawling for you. I suggested the other day that you try a free subscription to ancestry ............. this is the kind of search you could save up to to do when you take that out! Sylvia

can't find a marriage with a Minnie on freebmd ...................... but it could have happened AFTER 1919 OR Minnie is not her real name, which means it's a hopeless task looking for her!! Sylvia
