I also have them on the 1901 and 1911 census.

The main reason I want the marriage cert info is to confirm their parents names.

Thanks for your help

Thanks Maddie. It was Mary Ann Hazell. I thought it was 1881 not 1880. Well that has sorted that out.

You could find the registration on freebmd and apply for the cert through theGRO website

That, however, will only tell you fathers’ names and occupations.

Have you looked for them in 1871? You know their birthplaces from the census you have posted above

I will continue to investigate this family. I really must buy some certs to make sure I am going down the correct lines. I think the top of my tree could well be wrong.

Thanks everyone for your help

If you think there are some mistakes you really do need to buy a few key certificates.

It is so annoying when you realise you have been going along the wrong route.

The OP first said Henry, then changed to William, so presumably Henry was a typo which she hasn’t acknowledged ;-) ;-)
