Title: Kennedy search!!
Post by: curlyhev on Monday 02 November 09 16:36 GMT (UK)

Hi i am looking for the wedding details for some of my great grandparents they were both born in Lincolnshire and they had a son who was their first child in 1916. The father was called John Kennedy and the mother was called Edith Simpson.  I know very little else about these at the mo but am trying to find out when they wed.   Can anyone help me with the search i have tried to go through ancestry but have come up with nothing.....think i have gone sqaure eyed looking......
Many many thanks if you can help in anyway !!!
Kindest regards Heather

There is a marriage on Freebmd in E Retford in 1911 that has the two names you want.  Whether they married each other is a moot point but it might be a start.  It is in the March quarter so it will be before the 1911 census too so that is really helpful.
