Linda, to be honest this doesn't have enough info to work with, and the chances of a relative seeing this are pretty much nil. If you know her year and place of birth you might try looking in "search trees" above. If you want help you have to give more information.

Have you got her marriage cert?

Name: Reginald Ryan
Spouse Surname: Lee
Date of Registration: Jul-Aug-Sep 1954
Registration district: Thurrock
Registration county (inferred): Essex
Volume Number: 4a
Page Number: 2104

Cynthia's name is badly mis-transcribed (Cynfy!!) so if you order this do it with his name only.

I would get the cert then. Order online from GRO (General Register office):

www.gro.gov.uk

Certs cost £9.25 and usually arrive in about a week. You have to register and use a credit/debit card (though there is a form you can print off if you prefer). Be sure to take your time.and enter info precisely

RomanyStar is good on all things Romany/gypsy. Put her name into community search box and you should find one of her threads.
