Wedding order of service

Presumably you know where and when the ceremony was and the names of the couple, so you could request a copy of their marriage certificate from the registration district where the ceremony happened, which would give you their fathers' names and professions, their home addresses and the names of the witnesses...which might point you in a useful direction (or not).

Not expert in this, but the church records will have been moved somewhere. I'd try writing to the Diocese

I could try that. I do have their names but only one surname. As its written with their first names and then just one surname which I presume is the husbands. So no idea what the lady's maiden name was.
I think it's probably someone on my mum's side of the family as I have quite a detailed family tree of dad's side.

Have you found the marriage entry on freebmd? That will tell you her surname?

It's King if that's any use?

Oh thank you so much!
Still none the wiser
Maybe they were family friends rather than relatives

No problem at all, I love looking at family trees and my genes reunited subscription goes to waste a lot these days as I've hit a wall with my own tree!

Unfortunately there were a few Constance M King's born in 1900s so can't pin down her birth entry :/

Records are generally not kept in churches. The Diocesan will either keep them or they are at a records office with other documents.

If you order the marriage certificate, it will have their ages and names of their fathers, so you will hopefully then be able to locate them on the census. Or you might recognise the name of one of the witnesses.

Was any of your family living in that area at the time?

My mum was born in Plaistow in the 1930s which is why I think it might be my mums side
However my dads family lived in Finchley so could be that side too
I don’t recognise the surname thou

William J Ramsey married Constance M King on 23 Feb 1930 at Upton Park. Volume 4a Page 158. Does any of this make sense?

Windgate / Juneybean - can you see from your searches whether there were any children? In particular, a Winston Gordon born in 1940 and a Jennifer Margaret born in 1939

I found a report of a Mr Wiilliam Ramsey buying a business which became the Plaistow Press in 1919, along with a Mr Benjamin Buckey. Companies House has some info about the Plaistow Press, including the DoB of the directors before it was wound up (look to be descendants of the first Mr Ramsey

I am happy to have a look to tomorrow. Do you have any other information?

Can't find any suitable births on GR.

Winston and Jennifer look to be a married couple rather than brother and sister.

@OlennasWimple I will PM you
