Hello all, I believe it possible a distant relative married in St Michael's Toxteth Park in 1867, their names were William Jones and Elizabeth Clarke and I wondered if anyone had access to these records to have a check on the other details which would be on the cert fathers name etc. I have spent a small fortune recently on ordering the wrong certs for people which is why I am putting up a request on here first, these two haven't exactly got uncommon names!
Thank you
Sarah

Sarah...be careful with your research /answers because there was also another Jones/ Clarke marriage in 1867 at St Michaels, Toxteth Park...
Henry Jones to Ann Clarke......I`m not trying to confuse you, just to warn you in case someone looks up the wrong Jones/Clarke marriage at St Michaels,

Hi
When asking for a marriage lookup - you always need to include details of the quarter in which it took place as it helps narrow down the search for anybody doing the lookup
The quarter can be obtained from freebmd
In this case it was the September qtr

While not part of my tree, I have been helping a v. distant rellie & this couple are her gt. g/ parents! Like you, she hasn't got a copy of their marriage cert (she lives in Oz) and we were wondering if, in the past 3 years, you had been successful in your search.
Please contact me offlist for further, extensive, information at
