    Ron, have amended your post to include Australian marriage in the title.
    Some idea of date might be useful to anyone who thinks they might be able to help.

      i noticed you havnt put a date up, here's the link to search the new south wales database:

      The Registry was formed in 1856 to register life events in New South Wales accurately and securely for all time, ensuring their integrity and confidentiality. All our over the counter services are available at Service NSW centres.

        and here is the info you need to order the cert:

        reg num: 6369/1884 ROBINS, WILLIAM and OWEN, ELIZA in NEWCASTLE

        the cert is $30 or about 15 pounds, which is how much english certs convert too when your from aus! just search the abov einfo on the link i posted, and you can get the cert there.

          Why do English certificates cost you more than the equivalent of £9.25 (apaprox 15 AUD)
          I was under the impression that if you order from the General Register Office the price was £9.25 irrespective of where in the world it is sent to.

            It's also worth remembering that NSW has a system for allowing authorised transcriptions of BMD records if you don't need the information to be certified. They are significantly cheaper than certificates, but you have to be confident of the quality of the transcriber.
            There's usually a lot more info on an Australian cert than on a UK one.

              There are three transcribers for NSW records and it takes about a week. You can get their names and email addresses or websites from the NSW BDM website.

              They are all pretty accurate and the one I use will even answer questions if you are not sure - I had a birth cert with birth date as 9/7/1861 and a registration date of 7/9/1861, so I checked that this was right as it seem a bit of a co-incidence, and it was, born 9 Jul, registered 7 Sep. They also take orders and send you the transcript by email, which is much quicker than waiting for the post.

                Although the Newcastle newspapers are not transcribed on TROVE, it would seem that William and Eliza and their children moved to Sydney at some time.

                William died in 1927 and Eliza in 1913 - the funeral notices give the names of the children and the married names of the daughters. The NSW death indexes give CHARLES W and JANE as Williams parents and RICHARD and ELIZA for Eliza's. Both are buried at Woronora Cemetery in southern Sydney - their indexes are on-line.

                The parents names and fathers occupation may or may not be on the marriage certificate, but as late as 1884, they should be. Earlier it was more common for details not be sent to the registrar in Sydney, but the church register did have the information.

                  William Henry Robins Marriage 1884

                  Thank you everyone for the responses to my query on the marriage of William Robins. Sorry I left out the date.

                  To Dianne would you be able to supply the information on the children on the funeral notice.

                  Many thanks to all

                  Cheers Ron.

                    Hi Ron

                    According to NSW BDM indexes the children were:

                    Elsie M b1885 Newcastle d 1965 Maitland
                    Wallace Reginald b 1886 Newcastle d 1964 Rockdale (buried at Woronora Cemetery)
                    Winifred P b 1889 Armidale
                    Laurence William b1893 no place indexed d 1956 Parramatta (but buried at Woronora too)

                    The funeral notices invite friends of

                    Mr and Mrs P G S Eggins of East Maitland (Elsie M)
                    Mr and Mrs W R Robins of Strathfield
                    Mr and Mrs O W Walters of Strathfield (Winifred P)
                    Mr and Mrs W R Robins of Marrickville

                    hope this helps

                    You can look at NSW birth death and marriage indexes for free at http://www.bdm.nsw.gov.au/cgi-bin/In...h?event=births
                    and they are also on ancestry, and at the Australian Newspapers on Trove for free at http://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper. Both are very useful for finding people in NSW

                      it is 9 pounds wherever you buy them from elaine, but the conversion rate means it is the same price roughly as a vic aus cert, which is $17.50, and way more detailed! the converison rate is $1 = 69 pence atm

                            The Ryerson index can be useful for Australian newspaper death announcements. You need to make sure you pick up the correct link. There was a rogue site for a while, at least, claiming to do the same but charging money for the info.

                            The Ryerson index is run by volunteers, but welcomes donations.
