I have received a marriage certificate I ordered and everything is readable except the one piece of information I needed, the grooms father. There is a name there but all that is visable is the surname and dedeased. The first name has a few lines visable but nothing to determine what the name is. Any suggestions what to do. Nicky |

Nichola Contact the office which supplied the certificate and see if they can tell you what it says - it might be clearer on the original. Alternatively, post what you have here with * for undecipherable letters and we can have a go. Is it a very common surname? nell |

The surname is Sage but there is nothing in the first name which would help determine what it says. I've contacted the office who said they will try and print a further copy, if I return the one I have. Thanks Nicky |

A marriage certificate I received was all printed because the original would have been illegible. Maybe they can do that for you. |

Hi Carol, They told me it would only take about five days so I'll see what they can do. I hope they can confirm the details because its my nana's father and she knows nothing about his family, except his father died when he was very young. Nicky |
