I`ve had a look in the indexes and they are there with the ref number you have, and that is all you need to send away for the certificate. You will probebly know you can order this online from the GRO for £7and you should receive it within a week. Nana

Gina her marriage certificate will only give you her fathers name but if you order her birth certificate you will find out who her mother was... Births Sep 1906 (>99%) Perring Elsie Louisa M Bethnal G. 1c 188 Georgina.

The marriage certificate will give you her fathers name and her age but not her date of birth. Nana

Gina she was the only Elsie Louisa Perring that came up when I searched for a birth, if you think you have the wrong BC then you can send for her MC just to be sure. Do you know when she died? Georgina.

I must be as blind as a bat, I have spent an hour looking for this entry. I wanted the marriage cert to prove I have the right birth cert for her. Do you think this is necessary Thanks for your help Gina

She died in Bethnal Green Nov 1945. I am pritty confident this is the right person. I just wanted to confirm that her parents on the birth certificate, Henry Perring and Eliza, Are the same Henry and Eliza I found on the 1901 Census with four boys. I cant find a marriage entry for them either. I still cant see Elsie Louisa and Henry Vigus marriage entry where are you looking. Getting late, eyes must be tired Gina

I found their entry on findmypast. I couldn`t find it at first because I was looking in births by mistake. Are you doing the same thing by any chance? Nana

Gina looking at her death reference in 1945 she was 39 years old so that matches the birth in 1906. Georgina.

Hi Gina. I have found a marriage for a Henry Perring in Kingsbridge in Dec qtr of 1879 Ref 5b 367. I don`t know wether or not this is the London area. If it is and you have got Eliza`s maiden name I can double check it for you. Nana

I can`t find a marriage for Eliza Laker in Dec qtr of 1879 so she doesn`t match up with the marriage I found for Henry Perring. Nana
