Freebmd 1931 marriages  BEATRICE BIGGS marrying ? CALLAGHAN st olave 1d 437.

thats all i can get with my facility ,

If you click on the page number 437 you will get the list of people on that page.  Beatrice's husband was John B Callaghan.

If your friend can remember approximately when & where Beatrice is likely to have died, and whether she was still a Callaghan at death, then by finding her death record (which we can help you with) it should be possible to get an idea of her likely birthdate.
