Looking for any information about the family of Hannah Morris born in Monmouth(shire?) S Wales c1879. She married John G Fryer in 1914 and had several children - Benjamin G; John J; Minnie D; Mary M; Clifford P, according to freebmd. That is up to 1929 so could be more. Am interested to find out if her husband is related to my Fryer family
regards
Verity

The first thing that you would have to do is buy their marriage certificate, which would give you their fathers names. And hopefully, their ages.
Then you could find them on the 1901 census and then trace his family to see if their is a connection with your "Fryer" family.

thanks for your reply Julie. I have the volume/page details but thought i would find as much info here as i can before outlaying for certs. especially as they wouldn't be a really close relative (if at all lol)

You probably would only have to get the marriage certificate.
That should give you their fathers which means that you could find them on census and hopefully recognise their parents or grandparents as siblings of your family.
Have you checked if they are in anyones tree here on GR
