Hi, The GRO index is the only way I know of. The mother's maiden name is given in the refs for the dates you're looking for. 1837online could be a bit expensive but you can search the GRO fiche in a library or record office for nothing. Gwynne

Hi, Put 1837online in your search engine and it should appear - or look in the getting started section on this website. Gwynne
