These are the GRO numbers you need to send for a certificate ie

The registers are sent every 3 months to the General Registry Office (3 months = a Quarter)
If a Birth Marrage or Death occured in Jan-feb-or March they would be down as MARCH quarter

April ,May and June would be JUNE quarter

July, August, September would be in the
SEPTEMBER quarter

October, November, December would be in DECEMBER quarter.

However sometimes --for exaple if the birth marrage or death occured at the end of March --june--September--December---then it would be in the following quarter, likewise if the event was registered too late and had to go to the next quarter

So the above Marriage could have been between October and December 1912

Area ---Grantham
Volume number---7a
Page number---1131
Also it should give both their fathers names and occ to enable us to look on the census for the right people .
Hope you understand how I have put this
All the best

Thanks so much for your reply Barbara.
Unfortunately we do not have a copy of the marriage certificate of John C Wright and Caroline Weller, but we have a birth certificate of their daughter Jean Mary(My fiances mother) and it states John C Wright's occupation as Cartman (City Council) not sure what a cartman is or was but I presume city council is referring to Leeds City Council, where they were living at the time.
Can you please explain what 7a-1131 and December (quarter) refers to in your previous post.
Thank you

Hi Michelle,

Have you got John and Carolines marriage certificate?

Marriage
December (quarter) 1912
John C Wright and Caroline Weller
Grantham 7a--1131


If you have what age and occ does it say for John Charles ?

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Jean Mary Wright married a Henry Koros in Leeds 30 March 1948 and they had 2 children - Paul and John Peter Koros both born in Leeds UK. Jean Mary Koros (nee Wright) died at the young age of 38 years of a brain aneurysm in Leeds. Her husband Henry Koros re-married a Jean Gregory. Henry, his second wife and sons Paul and John Peter Koros then moved to Australia.
I am seeking any information on John's long lost brother Paul Koros born on April 7th 1952 or 1953 and is around 56 years old. Was once involved in the Medical Industry possibly doctor or anaesthetist and also lived in Florida U.S.A and was sighted approx 3 years ago around Wakefield, Leeds and surrounds in the U.K and could possibly frequently visit Amsterdam relating to a computer business or may still be in U.S.A or visits there often. Has been married at least once, but is known to be divorced.
Last known address was in Neptune Beach,Florida, USA but apparently does not reside at that address now.
Have had two family tracing companies try and find Paul but to no avail. Just hoping that some else out there can provide a glimmer of hope in this search

Any info relating to Paul would be so greatly appreciated.
