Margaret Priscilla Edwards married James Patterson Smith in May 1942 in Karachi. There is no sign of a marriage index on the GRO marriages overseas. Any idea how to get details of their marriage cert?

Sometime between 1946-1951, Margaret, her son Dennis Robin and daughter Patricia (all last name Smith) came back from India to UK. Are there any passenger lists of inbound passengers anywhere?

Thanks for any help

Thank you so much! I found a link for the India Office family history records from FIBIs and their marriage is indexed! I have sent for a copy. Louise
