So as you are posting in beginners what do you have already?
Do you know how to find a birth certif index?
Do you have your fathers birth certif?....do you know how to find it on the indexes?
Maybe start with seeing if you can find your fathers on here
http://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pland on here
http://www.westmidlandsbmd.org.uk/when you do find the info you can then apply to the local registry office or to the GRO for a birth certif
not full coverage on above sites only what has been transcribed by volunteers but very good sites to help you
useful to learn how to use them
When you have the Birth info you can then find a marriage
on this site
http://www.westmidlandsbmd.org.uk/cgi/m ... ds#surnameit will (if transcribed) show you the marriage info and church so you can if a church marriage look it up at the relevant archives.
