Title: Arthur Wood - Sarah Thorpe Marriage
Post by: sianw on Tuesday 07 May 19 16:31 BST (UK)
Hello  I am trying to find the origins of Arthur Wood who lived near Otley. He married Sarah Thorpe in 1934 Wharfedale 9a 285. However I do not know his birth or death dates.  I am hoping someone can help find the missing Arthur and his parents for me as he a missing piece in my family tree.

All help appreciated

Thank you

YorkshireBMD says that the marriage took place at "Methodist Church Pool" Leeds.

Added:  I think, but not sure, that Leeds is where the records are kept, and that Pool (in Wharfedale) is the location.  :-\

You could look for the couple on the 1939 register which gives dates of birth.

Have you checked the Birth Marriage Death registers for a death for him?

How about Sarah have you a death date for her?

There's a family tree with his father as John Wood and a baptism for Arthur 16 Oct 1898 so you might want to check that information out  :)
