Hello group,
My g-g-g-g grand parents, Richard Benbow & Ann Pugh were married
on 09 Oct 1827 at Hallow in Worcester, I would like to get a copy of
their marriage certificate but don't know how to go about this as the
General register office website doesn't supply them before 1837.
Please can someone advise me.
Quite simply - they didn't exist before 1837!
Civil registration, that is, the registry office system, didn't start
until 1837.
Marriage would have had to take place in a church, so you need to
locate the actual church and get a copy of the parish record of the
marriage - often just a line or two in a book...
