Marriage Look Up IRWIN 1942 Felpham
« on: Saturday 25 October 25 14:51 BST (UK) »
Hello everyone,
I would be so grateful if someone could look up the exact date of a marriage that occurred in 1942 between Johnston Donald IRWIN (dob 10/05/1909, NI) and Margretta MACKAY in the parish of Felpham, West Sussex.  It was in Q3 of the year.
Many thanks!

Not easy, I'm afraid.  Firstly the page number of 1014 suggests perhaps a Register Office marriage.  Secondly there are 3 trees on Ancestry listing Margretta.  One is viewable, but no further details shown, and the other 2 are listed as Private, and so you would have to contact the owners.  Sorry.

Thank you BumbleB!  I had tried to look it up and discovered it was behind a paywall, so thank you very much for the transcription with the extra information!
