What evidence do you have to suggest that these two married anyone?

If you don't know who their father was, even if you bought all the certs for people with the name, you wouldn't be able to be sure they were the right ones.

Perhaps you could tell us a bit more of what you know about them.............

You will need to access the full bmd index.........unfortunately, it isn't free...........

It will be a case of looking at every qtr of every year from when each of them would have turned 16...............then buying the certs to check if the ages etc match your info..................
