I am seeking info regarding a Marriage which took place at Keele in Staffordshire in April 1837.The first question I must ask is;Am I right in thinking that registration with the GRO etc,only started after a certain date in 1837? Regards William Russell Jones Cefn Mawr Wrexham. |

Yes started 1st July 1837 so the qtr is Sept .ie 1st July to 30th Sept. You will need to look in parish records for the marriage you want. Shirley |

William I have an interest in Thomas Greens who married in Stafford! If you track this marriage down and it gives his father's name, I would be most obliged if you would let me know - I have several Thomas Greens who seem to have drifted off to Staffordshire. OC |

Many thanks Kelly,and it is indeed the correct Marriage,and it is a pity that it doesn't come within the 1837 etc,as I am wishing to know the Father of Jane 'Durbar'.As far as this Thomas Green is concerned 'Old Crone',he was born in Burslem in c 1815,but unfortunately perhaps,it is the Durber family I am related to. Regards William Russell Jones Cefn Mawr Wrexham. |

I too have an April 1837 marriage on my tree and I'm deperate to find the groom's father's name. Frustrating isn't it? On another branch, a widow remarried and we were able to track her father, by the second marriage, her first being before 1837. Any chance your Jane married again later? Gwyn |

I believe 'cefn' is Welsh for 'ridge' |

I think Mawr may be 'great' or 'big' |

Cefn Mawr roughly translates as Big Back,and whilst I would agree that one has to be careful giving open details of oneself,nethertheless one has to be proud of where you come from! Regards William Russell Jones Cefn Mawr Wrexham |
