Anne's right, you know. With his Dad's name from his MC and possibly a 1901 census entry you could very easily pin his birth down.

Well, you can try, but any of mine I've tried to ignore always seem to find a way of nudging me to try again. :lol:

Really only kidding, not something you can do, once you start looking you just got to keep going!!!

So to get the MC, what info do I need to order it? do I need to buy credits from Find my Past, or Ancestry.co.uk, or can I get it with the info I already know, which is not very much.
I know the answers are probably staring me in the face somewhere here, but us pensioners are a bit slow on the uptake :(

You can order an English marriage certificate online - you simply need the reference which you already have Portsmouth Dec Qtr 1930 2b 1430 - to get the best price
