Hi

Those birthdates are late enough that a marriage might not yet have been transcribed on FreeBMD.  Have you looked through the full GRO index?

I agree with Laird of Lynn that if you have details about any children of theirs (though please don't name anybody still living) it might well help in the search.

Ah ha that would be why I struggled on BMD! If they married around 20 ish then the 1st child would have been born around 1920 22 ish
Thanks
Robin

Is there a child of theirs (not still living) whose name & approx birthdate/place you know?  The birth registration index will give mother's maiden name, which would help in finding the marriage and Prudence's origins.

I will have to pop over to the graveyard where I know one of the eldest sons is buried which will help things.
Thank you so much
