Hi Gillian Have you had a look on IGI website, you might get lucky and find the marriage your after. I searched the bmd records at my local library and most of the pages were un readable for the surname i was after. Goodluck with your search. Julie |

No - mine was from West Yorkshire. As you say, maybe some of the records were not transcribed. I have looked in the records at the FRC in London and couldn't find it. I suppose it is possible that errors were made when the big books there were compiled and some were missed? |

Julie, The freebmd coverage for marriages c1860 is pretty poor, maybe that's why! G |

Hi Gillian Ive had the same problem looking for births 1850 -60 (Manchester), some of the pages are so hard to read that maybe they are missed when being transcribed as there not readable. Its so frustrating. Julie |

Hi Gillian - I have also moved heaven and earth to try and find a marriage from 1860. I am beginning to wonder if for some reason some of the records went astray? |

Hello All, Does anyone have any ideas where to search for my elusive marriage? The details are: Emma Hart married Francis George Slynn. They were both born Birmingham, Emma 1839 & Francis 1837. According to the 1861 census they were living in Birmingham, both married living with their 7 month old daugther Emma. I have found nothing on 1837online (searched 1858, 1859, 1860 & also 1863/4 before I knew of daughter Emma's existense!). On freebmd there is a Emma Hart marriage to William Santry in 1859 and also a Francis George Slynn marriage in 1898, his second marriage. I've found nothing on familysearch.org. Where do I look next??? Any ideas please, Gillian |
