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.

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.
