The marriage cert would be an obvious way to go for father's name

As has been explained on your other thread, records for India are difficult to access

Good morning.

On 29 July 1902 in India, Charles James Gorman (born 8 Nov 1877) married Ellen Elizabeth Page (YOB c.1883) . Witnesses at the wedding were Harlan and Alexander Page.

I can find nothing else on Charles and Ellen Gorman after this.

I would also quite like to find a birth for Ellen and her father's name.
The parents of Charles were Andrew and Catherine.

Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

Thank

Nicki
