I have : David Vale on the 1851 Census for St Giles, Colchester with his family and his new wife Mary Saunders. I sent of for Mary & Davids marriage certificate. On it she gives her fathers name as Felix Saunders occupation Bricklayer. I was looking for Marys family in either 1851 or 1841?

It may be that he is deceased - they didn't always put deceased on the certificate.
