1834 - you'd need to look to see if they were baptised/ christened and hope their fathers names were recorded, you can then cross reference the father with that given on the marriage certificate.

This is the only one I can see on the IGI born 1834:- GEORGE WHITBREAD Male -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Event(s): Birth: Christening: 09 MAR 1834 Fosbury, Wiltshire, England Death: Burial: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Parents: Father: JAMES WHITBREAD Family Mother: CHARLOTTE EATALL OR EATWELL As already stated, you would have to try to get the marriage certificate for your George to see what his father's name is.
