Hi everyone,
Merry Xmas for a start! :)
I'm posting as a long shot before I resort to buying all marriage certificates from GRO
is there anyway anyone could look up these Heap marriages for me in Liverpool?
Richard Heap 1917 Emma Hudson - last occupation Dock labourer
Robert Heap 1919 Edith M Pearson -last occupation labourer
William Heap 1895 Margaret O'Connor
George 1896 Ada Foxon
I'm hoping the father's name will be William Heap on them all.
He worked in Brassworks/ as an Engine Fitter but was also just recorded as a 'Labourer' on census.
I can't find William (b 1864)
and George (b 1870) both in Liverpool on further censuses so am hoping potential marriages will shed some light.
George was last seen on the 1891 census employed by the postal service, and William the 1881 (he's just stated as apprentice here)
Any help would be appreciated before I buy the certificates!!
Thanks in advance :)

Thank you for such a quick reply!
I might have to rethink Richard's supposed death in 1929
I don't know how I've never noticed this on ancestry before- I feel rather silly!!

I can’t see a marriage for George Heap/Ada Foxon :-\

I can’t see a marriage for George Heap/Ada Foxon :-\
I found it in 1896 on the England + Wales Marriages
As you couldn't find it- I narrowed it down and found that on findmypast.co.uk, the index is under 'George Heaps' in 1897 and 'Aderiennener Foxon' and on the ancestry image his father is Thomas Heaps!
I feel like I'm rather answering my own query here! Glad I didn't order the certificates!
Guess I'll have to keep searching what happened to these elusive Heap men...

Thank you for that, and yes, that is my George there!
Harriett was first baptised in a Catholic church which is why it states age 15 in the margin, and she definitely did marry Joseph Tipping
