I'm trying to find the spouse for a marriage Dec qtr 1938 Portsmouth, 2b 1315, for a Beatrice L.House.
The index states she married a Rogers but I can't get the link to him.

Can anybody help?

Many thanks

Have you tried looking the other way round? That is, search for marriage of surname Rogers in Portsmouth in 1938? I have found this often gets results.

Yes, I tried that but it doesn't seem to work.
Maybe I'm going wrong somewhere

Thanks Jonesey - I had the same thing so gave up! That'll teach me to be more persistent.
