Welcome to Rootschat.
You don't give us much information to go with so the marriage record on FreeBMD is the March 1/4 1904 registration district Launceston. Names Lily Bertrude Palmer and Heber Davey vol 5c page 27. Both names have been transcibed correctly from the original typewritten images. Whether they have been transcribed correctly from the original parish records?

I thank you for this, not sure why I did not see your post earlier. You mention Ruth in your post, this was my Mother. Lily [married Cox] moved to California in the 50's.

hi David
Do you want any more information on Lily or any other family members going back beyond the 1901 census.
Don't worry on not picking up on my post sooner, I forget I have answered them a couple of hours later.  ;D
