BURSTON FREDERICK GER M 1863 48 Newcastle under Lyme Staffordshire

Both the above living with May somebody! Might the 2nd one be your grandfather?

I can't find a marriage either!

Hi thanks for the replies.

My Great grandfather was called Frederick Burston and my Great nan was called May Elizabeth Winter. I got their full names from my nans birth certificates. The problem is trying to find more info on them. I can't find a marriage certificate or at least one that is close. I believe my great nan was born around 1895/6 but can not be sure. Its like looking for a needle in a haystack.
