Can't find a marraige for Sarah Welding to Wilkinson on freebmd (although there are a couple of Wilkinson to a Wilding but not Charles or John)

The area you are referring to is called Whalley Range this is in Lancashire.

There are so many Thomas Wilkinsons (and Wilkinsons in general for Lancashire).

Have you got your fathers birth certificate this would give parents names and possible areas and dates.

Have you found them on any census or do you have any other info.
