Thanks all I was trying to find wife name as I now know Thomas is buried in Dandenoog Cemetery, Victoria, Australia. I have him on the 1901 census still living at home, and then while searching for a different Thomas found his burial details (his full name is Thomas Spalton greensmith, his mothers maiden name who died in his childbirth). as well as marriage. I wanted to trace any children or details of life in Australia. I will send for certificate (but wanted instant results as we all do!) Thanks again Linda

It's ukbmd for Staffs. It's good, names both bride and groom. I can't see the one you're looking for though. Heather

I am looking for the spouse of Thomas Greensmith. I have the marriage details Stoke on Trent Mar Qtr 6b Page 332. All my searches only give 2 male names for that page - ancestry, freebmd, familyhistory on line - are there any other sites i can try without having to send of certificate? Thanks linda
