Unless you have some idea of where they might have married, it could be a very difficult task to find marriages with a name like Wood.

There are two marriages in 1936 for a Vera M. Wood - one in Sheffield and one in Birmingham but it would be impossible to tell if either of these is the one you are looking for.

I usually start looking for marriages for girls from when they would be about 18/20 years old (but of course it could be earlier or later).

Do you have any more details of where they might have moved to or do you think they stayed in the same area?
