Archibald Andrew Rennie

Do you mean how to get a birth certificate for one of the children, or how to get the marriage certificate?

[mjmcara]

would you suggest the best way to go? I was thinking i needed a birth certificate in order to find the marriage.

[KiteRunner]

Yes, I agree, getting a birth certificate first will be best and that will give you the mother's maiden name. Maud Violet looks to have the most unusual name, so I would suggest you get her birth cert as you will be sure to get the right one that way:
birth Mar 1892
name Maud Violet Rennie
district Medway
volume 2a
page 614

and you can order it from the GRO at this link:
General Register Office (GRO) - Official information on births, marriages and deaths

While I wait for the certificate is there any way to search forward?

Archibald, March 31st. 1918 a Dockyard Worker is married at Saint Thomas Woolwich to Mary Louise Woodhouse in the presence of Albert James Woodhouse Dockyard Foreman and R Woodhouse. They are living at 105 Sand Street Woolwich. June 1924 they have a son name removed.

Maud Violet, I believe her married name was Tennyson. She may have had two children details removed.

Margret, it is thought she became a nun. No order or other information known.

[KiteRunner]

Are any of those people still alive? If so, then we need to remove their details as it is our site policy not to post up details of living people.

Update - since you must not have seen this message I've deleted their details.

[KiteRunner]

Searching forward - one thing which is easy to do but can take a while is simply to search through the GRO death indexes quarter by quarter to find out when they died and order copies of the death certificates. Then you will find out where they died, where they were living when they died, who registered the deaths...

Another idea is to look through the old phone directories on ancestry.

[mjmcara]

KiteRunner thank you. I have no idea if those people are still alive, but certainly they may. Quick math they would be 84-94 years of age. Is there a year to use as a guide for posting?

[KiteRunner]

If they would be over a hundred then it should be o.k.

[KiteRunner]

So, a quick look on FreeBMD brings up this possible marriage:
