I though it was family relatives, but I can't see it anywhere.

I've tried but it isn't coming up with that option.

It is a long time since I used that site so not sure unless they have changed it would doubt it though. Is it perhaps that facility isn't available for the years you need. Sorry can't help Germaine x

Thanks Germaine, I think you are right. I think it's only for 1866 onwards and I am looking for a marraige in 1849. Oh, knickers! Looks like I'll have to think of something else!!

Mandy What part of the country are you searching. Sometimes the UK BMD website has indexes of local records. Pete

If you can find them on the 1851 census it is usually possible to work out who they married. Anne

Pete is right in what he says. I know the Lancashire BMD pair up marriages does the county you are looking at have it's own BMD. Germaine x

Thanks Pete, Annie and Germaine. It's kings Norton in Worcestershire. I'll have a look on UK BMD and see if they pair up the marriages. Thanks for the tip.
