I am trying to find out who LILLIAN MARY ANN FISHER (b1888 Folkestone) married in 3rd qtr 1907 Elham. I think it was either JOHN ALBERT CULLEN or WILLIAM HENRY GREEN but I have no idea which one.
Thank you
Malcolm

You can sometimes get an idea from looking at local births post 1911.
What is the detail of the 'missing' spouse?

There is a birth of Doris L Cullen Elham 1913 mmn Shrewsbury.
So it would seem to be the marriage to William Henry Green.
The cert will clear the issue.

Yes, she did marry Mr GREEN - there is only one couple with the same reference numbers on the Kent Registration Services site:

I must be doing something wrong! I have never used the kent reg site before I fed her details in and got a no records reply. What am I doing wrong?

Hi Malc
Just enter the surname FISHER (or part of the surname and click the "not sure" box) and ensure that it is in capitals then enter the year .................... press enter or click marriage search box. Any good?

Yes! Thanks, I took out her first and second names and it worked. Now I know how to drive the site!
Happy Chrismas! :) :) :)

Hi Malcolm,
Long shot maybe, but I have some Folkestone Fishers.... was Lillian's grandmother (or gt-g) Mary Ann Holliday b.Newington) by any chance?

Hi Steph, I have Lillian's parents as Robert Fisher b. 1860, mother Hannah Knight b. 1860 and her grandparents as Frederick Fisher 1835 - 1913 and grandmother Mary Baker 1840 - 1908 all born in Newington or Folkestone.

Hi Malc,
I'll bet we have a link somewhere, Newington's a small place and there were plenty of Fishers, many of whom moved to Folkestone! I'll have a look through my records when I get home, I've not done anything with the Fishers for ages so I'll not guess ::)
I'll be in touch.
Steph.
