Hi,
The registration district was very large. Not just the place of Kings Norton.
The Guild of One-Name Studies has a website that attempts to calculate the Anglican church from the GRO index. Although indecisive in this case it suggests a Balsall Heath church, which fits with the 1901 census details.

Hi
Can you tell us exactly what help you are asking for with the marriage? Without knowing which church it took place in, it's difficult to look it up in parish records.
I have checked both Staffs and WestMids BMD websites which would show the name of the church but it has not been transcribed

Thank you both
I'll take a look at that link Mike & Carole thanks for looking I couldn't track down where they married either
thanks appreciate the help
