Henry Wright and Lucy Knowles

Post by barnsleymeth2000 » Thu Jan 28, 2021 7:50 pm

I have found out that Henry Wright had a first marriage to Lucy Knowles in 1902 and at the time in 1904 were living at Stone Street, Eckington, Derbyshire. I have found her buried in Eckington Cemetery on 6th April, 1904 and have ordered a copy of the death cert. I am having difficulty finding the marriage record. It does say on Free BMD Chesterfield, Derbyshire and contacted the office, but they have no record or in registry office. Has anyone any idea how I can locate a copy of this? Been at this for ages. Thank you in anticipation of any help.

Since you have found the GRO reference for this marriage:

Chesterfield Mar1902 7b 1121

you need to go to www.gro.gov.uk and order the certificate. It will cost £11 because you can't yet get PDF certificates for marriages.

Best wishes,
Meg

I did phone the office for a copy of the marriage cert and gave them the ref no. and they said they had no record for this and also tried the registry office.

Contacted www.gov.uk and will see if i can get any further, and thank you for the information.
