You will need your grandfather`s birth certificate to see if the names agree with what you have found. That will give you his father`s name and his mother`s maiden name, then check back the indices for a marriage. The marriage certificate should give you their ages when they married, hopefully. If you are unlucky, you will get `of full age`, in which case, you can only be sure that they are at least 21. |
