Hi Kim

You can get it but you have to do it the long way.

Post the names and I'll look for you if you'd like.

Mary

EDITED sorry, yes Jim you are correct, no Q4 at all on ancestry.

Hi Mary

Sorry I didn't get back sooner had to go out.

Thanks for the offer, can I be cheeky tho as the same thing has happened in 1929 same qtr, except the pages are just blank.

Henry P Edwards marrying Stromme, possibly Bristol, but the names are correct.

Thank you

Kim

Hi all,

Have checked and found nothing for the above names in 4th 1925 or 29. Could she possibly have been married before? Have you got any of the children's birth certificates to confirm that she was only called Stromme

Kind Regards

Jane

Hi Jane

Thanks for looking for me

Yes I have son's birth cert, she was Norwegian and Henry Edwards was from Bristol.

I have been trawling the marriages from 1920 - 1950 but no luck. Their eldest son was born early 30's and the youngest early 50's, so am now thinking the possibility now they might have married in Norway.
