If I have a marriage reference for a relative is there any way I can find out who they married without:
a) buying the certificate
b) spending hours and hours trawling through the records for that quarter.
I have absolutely no idea who the lady is, my relative is Albion Ledger and he doesn't seem to appear on the free bmd site for marriage or death.
The marriage reference is 3Q Marylebone 1a p1289 and a son Cyril was born in 1907 (from a handwritten tree my father did in the 1960/70s) but no mention of the Lady's name.
There may be more children but I doubt it as on the tree Albion's brother is named and underneath him 4 children in Australia but again no wife's name!
I have another gem on a different branch Reginald Fowler + 3 children (in Zululand)
