London & Middlesex Completed Lookup Requests / Re: Crook family

Hi - sorry for the delay in getting back to you, lots going on at the moment.  Sarah's maiden name is Dryden.  I doubt if they got married in Scotland.  William seems to move from Eaton (Windsor) to London.  I have found no trace of him anywhere else. Its a mystery, but I will keep digging!!

Hi to all,

I have just joined this site, it looks brill,  but I have to confess a little daunting.  Anyways here goes - I am researching my family tree and am looking for any information concerning the Crook family.  They were living in St. Anne Soho, London in 1881, in particular I am trying to find a marriage certificate for Sarah and William.  They were my Great Great Grandparents, one daughter, Annie, is mentioned in connection with the Jack the Ripper stories, the other, Alice, is my Great Grandmother.
I have searched all the usual channels and so far no joy. I just feel that as they had gone to the trouble getting their children christened etc that they would have been married.  A long shot I know, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed! :)  Thank you.
