Thank you but to be sure I've ordered the certificate Thank you

If that 1939 date is correct for Ellen , there were only 3 Ellens born in Dec qtr 1897 - in Whitehaven, Leeds and Gateshead

Sorted computer must have been plating up it's ordered

Sorry just tried to order certificate getting in a mess asking for date -only got year asking for GRO number is that the same as what I can see on Lancashire BMD
Lancashire says £11 GRO £14? not ordered a certificate for years

Just in case - a birth on SP:

DUFF
THOMAS
M
1893
685/5 709
Newington

But, as Erika says, you need the marriage cert.

It isn't necessarily accurate to say they married in the Register Office. Look at the actual wording on Lancs BMD.

They probably married in a Catholic Church, in view of their names

Ok Just a thought Thank you for trying

The info available is insufficient to identify these people prior to the marriage.

The fact that they married in Manchester has no bearing on where they were born

As I said on your other thread, you'll need to buy the cert

There is no birth on the GRO to fit Thomas's DoB info

This is the Ellen (mother) in the 1911 census you found:

Marriages Sep 1882 (>99%)
GUNNING Ellen Chorlton 8c 1145
KELLEHER Thomas Chorlton 8c 1145

Though I don't yet see a later marriage to a Kelly.

For clarity


Births Mar 1917 (>99%)
Duff John Kelly Manchester 8d 315
Births Sep 1920 (>99%)
Duff Thomas Kelly Prestwich 8d 539
Births Sep 1924 (>99%)
Duff Bertha E Kelly Prestwich 8d 485
Births Dec 1928 (>99%)
Duff Doreen C Kelly Manchester N. 8d 602

So here they are in 1939, with DoB info

146 Red Bank Bank View, Manchester C.B., Lancashire, England
Thomas Daff 22 Nov 1892 Male Newsagent Married 114 1
Nellie Daff 26 Nov 1897 Female - Married 114 2
John Daff 07 Jan 1917 Male Packer (Goods) Single 114 3
Thomas Daff 17 Jun 1910 Male Motor Driver (Milk) Single 114 4
Bertha Ellen Gormley 03 Aug 1914 Female Machinist Clothing Single 114 5
Doreen Waterhouse (Duff) 06 Nov 1929 Female At School Single 114 6
One closed record, which will be Catherine

I have a John, Thomas. Bertha., Doreen and Catherine Duff GRO MMN Kelly
I have a marriage for Thomas Duff and Ellen Kelly 1916 Manchester Register Office I'm trying to find Thomas And Ellen before they got married
I've got 1911 census but not convinced Ellen Kelly Daughter aged 14 born 1897 Manchester ,
Ellen Kelly aged 49 born Manchester Head ( mother)
Michael Kallicher 28 son Manchester GRO MMN Gunning ??

Not sure if it's right it's thrown me with the surname of the son and trying to find him the names seems to change at times
with it being a register office wedding I've got nothing else
Be grateful if any one can help
