If you are using FreeBMD the usual reason is that the fourth name has not yet been transcribed. You can send for the Cert anyway with only one name on it, plus the index numbers. However I have my great grandparents appearing (presumably mistakenly!) on different page numbers. I think this is an original mistake made when the GRO index was first being made - I have checked with the fiche records in the library. Anne

Can anyone tell me why a name is missing from marriage (maiden) details, I have folio etc, but only three names are given - my Gt grandmother is missing. Would it be worth sending for the certificate or do you think that is where the problem is? Any comments welcome Ann
