Marriage (and birth) Lookup c.1940
« on: Sunday 19 August 07 21:01 BST (UK) »
Hi,

I'm trying to find the marriage details of my grandmother & grandfather.  My grandmother was Annie Stewart b.1923 (thanks Tom!) in Blantyre and my grandfather Henry George William Sayce b.1923 in Bethnal Green, London.  Although they finally lived in London from at least 1954 I cannot find their marriage register or the birth of their first child Mary Ann Francis Sayce b.abt 1943.

I was wondering if any kind soul could look up the marriage details for me and if they have the time the birth of Mary.  Unfortunately, I don't know the year they were married but as my grandmother was born in 1923 and Mary was born about 1943 I'm assuming it would've been between 1940 and 1943 and probably around the Blantyre area (although that's not definite).

Many thanks,
Kelly x

Hi Kelly

Further look-ups at Glasgow Genealogy Centre are still on offer.  I can check all Scottish BMDs from 1855 till 2007 for you.  As before, just give me the info you have, and what you want to find out.  Can't take any more photos of the monitor screen as this is no longer allowed, but I can copy down all the relevant info for you.  My next visit to Glasgow is 3 September.

Regards
Tom

Hi Tom!

I didn't like to ask again so that's why I opened it to everyone!!!!  Would it still be possible for you to send me the photo of my nan's birth record?

Ok, the details I have re the marriage are:
Names: Annie Stewart - Henry George William Sayce
Date: Unsure but possibly between 1940-1945
Place: Again, unsure, maybe around Blantyre area but not definite.

The birth details of my aunt are:
Name: Mary Ann Francis Sayce
Date: 2nd Nov 1943
Place: Unsure

Many thanks Tom.  Whatever details you can get will be very much appreciated.

Kelly xx

Hi Kelly

I can check Annie's marriage and the birth record of Mary Ann for you.

Easy peasy - as long as the events were registered in Scotland.

I emailed Annie's birth record to you yesterday, let me know if you received it and are able to open up the photo attachment.

Regards
Tom
