Charles Vote and Harriet Price are just the names of the other couple who share the same page on the marriage register.
They have nothing to do with your couple.

Sometimes there can be 8 names sharing the same reference number which is why it's difficult to tell who married who .... until 1911, when the index pairs them up.

On Robert's marriage cert does it say if his father is deceased ?

The marriage is on freebmd
http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/cgi/search.pl

Strange that there are no witnesses recorded.

i believe it must go back to scotland as robert was born in ayr ayrshire, info from 1911 census

Emma

Emma Report 27 Nov 2010 14:02

The marriage was registered in st pancras london 11th jan 1908
brides name ellen elizabeth page,there's no mention of witness'
i have found robert on the census must be 1911 one as he was a trooper in the life guards based at albany street barracks
i say scotland as i believe thats where he must have come from

Good. That's a start

What else can you tell us from the marriage cert?
In Scotland I presume ?
Where and When?
Bride's name and witnesses?

Can you find the family on any censuses?

Emma

Emma Report 27 Nov 2010 13:51

that isn't a definate age, its just one i use as a rough guess but perhaps 1860 would be better, sorry i'm still a bit of a novice at all this

To be in your tree at all, he must have some connections, be it wife, children or siblings.

Emma

Emma Report 27 Nov 2010 13:32
