Member Since: June 2003 Posts: 12 Send Message	I need some help! I have details of a marriage extracted from the church records in 1835, did they have certificates in those days? How can I get any more information on their parents? Sara

	I have parish registers of marriages that took place where the fathers names and occuaptions are recorded. Sometimes the witnesses are family members too so this is worth looking into. Alison
