Huddersfield Marriage Record Lookup
« on: Friday 27 November 09 20:08 GMT (UK) »
I am looking for a marriage record for Mark Hill and Elizabeth Townend.  They are listed in the index of marriage records for July-Aug-Sep 1847 and are both listed on p. 250.

Welcome to RootsChat.

I'm afraid without knowing the church where the marriage took place, it's not possible to look at the record.  The reference you give is the GRO reference and enables you to order the certificate.  The civil registration entries are not open to public inspection so the only other way to see what is recorded on the certificate is to look at the parish record entry.  Unless they married in the register office - in which case, no luck.  You'd definitely have to buy the certificate.

Yorkshire BMD does not cover Huddersfield marriages yet and the entry is not included on the IGI to help find out which church.
