John, An 1853 marriage cert won't give you parents names, most you can expect from pre 1855 record,  date of marriage, or date it was contracted; names of parties; place or parishes of residence. very rarely will you get name of witnesses

Hi Liz

Thank you for your reply. If nothing else the addresses would help as perhaps the families could be raised on the census.

Do you have this?

Regards

Robert

John, Were the family in Scotland in 1881? as I have'nt been able to locate them yet.

I found these on familysearch, some children of John and Jane.

   1. CHRISTINA WILSON  - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Female Birth: 25 DEC 1855 Coldstream, Berwick, Scotland
   2. ELISABETH WILSON - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Female Birth: 16 AUG 1857 Coldstream, Berwick, Scotland
   3. JOHN WILSON - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Male Birth: 03 MAY 1862 Coldstream, Berwick, Scotland
   4. FANNY WILSON - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Female Birth: 29 OCT 1860 Coldstream, Berwick, Scotland

Chrstina's birth cert. of 1855 will give you her parents age and where they were born,  but may be registered under the year 1856 as she was born on Christmas day.  This would narrow it down on where to look for their births.

Hi Liz

First of all my name is Robert not John!!

The family moved to London in the mid 1860's and thence to Liverpool in the early 1870's. If there were addresses othe marriage entry I might then be able to identify the parents of John and Jane.

Regards

Sorry about that. I must have been thinking about your ancestor  John Wilson

Robert, I guess you've seen both the 1871 and 1881 census for this family.  1881 census shows Jane Wilson as being born Morpeth, Northumberland about 1832.

This could be worth checking out. (found in familysearch)

Jane Walker born 24th mar 1832
Ch. King St. Independent, Morpeth, Northumberland

Parents George Walker and Mary Brodrick

You could try 'scotlandspeople' for the birth of John, born about 1832 according to 1881 census, in Coldstream.
