	Help, my brain has seized up. Where do I go to get a marriage certificate from 1826? according to familysearch the marriage took place in St Michaels, Bishops Stortford, Hertfordshire. Also will a mariage cert for 1826 say where the groom was from? Thanks Vikki

It will ask you to enter a place name. from there you will be able to see if they have microfilmed the relevant church registers. If they have (good possibility) you can then pop down to your local LDS centre (addresses also on the site) adnd order one for a very small fee. Alternatively check the local libray or records office. Hope that gets you on your way! CArole
