And three people have now searched for and provided the marriage on three different boards -- TTF, Surname Information and General.

Craig, please read the rule about one post per topic. And delete the posts on General and Surname Information (maybe after sending a private message to the people who answered there, thanking them), and reply to the posts on Trying to Find.

Does anyone know who the parents of Edward are all i know is that his wife was Beatrice. Edward & Beatrice probably married in walsall. they had 5 childtren Thomas, Norman, Gwen, Mavis & Ivy my grandmother. Edward moved to coventry with his wife. They lived in Strathmore Ave??? I believe Edward died in Coventry but not much was told because i believe he was in a home somewhere on the london road coventry suffering from some mental disorder. Any help with this part of my family would be very much appreciated. Thank you
