Re the marriage found by Mike*

GRO Index: 1860 quarter 4, volume 3a, page 854:

Sorry, we cannot locate the church for this marriage. The entry is located between entries for Swanbourne St Swithin (RD: Winslow) and Twyford (RD: Buckingham).


Just wondered if it rang any bells for Tracy's friend???

well john hale was born Stepney and diane smith was born sunderland according to the birth cert but not certain

What sort of birth certificate have you got that shows birthplaces of parents?

England/Wales birth certs do not record the birthplaces of the parents

Also, just because the mother's maiden name is on the cert, it does not mean that she and the father were actually married

Ah the change was made around 1969

Name, date and place of birth.
Father's name (if given at time of registration), place of birth and occupation.
Mother's name, place of birth, maiden surname and, after 1984, occupation.
(Registrations made before 1969 do not include details of the parents' place of birth and mother's occupation.)

Are the parents still alive...perhaps not the most appropriate place to be discussing whether they married or not?

Could the mother have been married before, so a marriage of Diane Smith to Mr X, and then Diane X to John Hale? Extra surnames do not always show.
Are Diane and John the grandparents of your friend?
