	Civil registration only began in England in 1837. Prior to then there were no BMD certificates. Parish records of that time very rarely contain any information about the marrying couples fathers or occupations ect.
	Researching: Don't put off until tomorrow doing what you can do today. If you like doing it today you can do it again tomorrow. Be kind to your children for it is they who will decide which care home you end up in.

	Hi Lorraine There are no certs before 1837 but I have looked at the original entry for the mariage and there are no parents mentioned only the Witts. Sue
