Hi all,
I found the marriage I was looking for between
Albany John GILPIN & Winifred Freda TRICE happening in Chatham in the March Qtr. Of 1944. 2a - page 2285,
Would these records still be in the Parish Church.
I’m trying to find Albany’s father’s name & hoping although he was deceased it would still be on the marriage certificate.
Thanks for any help anyone can give me or tell me where I should be looking for this info.

To look up a marriage - you have to know which church it took place in. It may have been a civil marriage which can’t be looked up
His birth is on freebmd 1913 Newton Abbott showing his mmn as Pitts and there is a Gilpin/Pitts marriage in 1899 in the same RD

Thanks Carole , so Chatham would be the District & not the parish church.

Yes - see here for all areas within that RD

If they married in a C of E church you should find it on Medway Cityark. You will have to browse the images for each parish.

click on parish registers
Having looked again, I don't think they have anything that recent online.
