Re: DAVIES/PRICE

You left out some details! You also need 1851,1861,1871, 1881, 1891 and 1901 Censuses
Thomas DAVIES married Selina BEVAN or PRICE, married in Swansea (Wales) on 26 Feb 1866. I have no further information about them and nothing concrete turns up when I do a search on ancestry.co.uk.
Marriages Jun 1866

Forums need to be visited regularly by members not just to see if someone is helping them but also to see if they can help somebody else.
Forums should be living things not a graveyard of surnames and unknown, uncomunicating absent members!

Re: DAVIES/PRICE
Thanks Alec!
I assume that the "11a 840" is a ref. to in the marriage register to the actual certificate? What do I do now to actually follow "11a 840"?

Evyn

Re: DAVIES/PRICE
Hi Evyn
11a 840 IS the GRO index reference you need to order a copy of the certificate from the GRO ....
If you go to this site:
http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/
you can order a copy of the certificate for £7.
You will need to fill in the form, where it asks Is the General Register Office Index known? click yes.
Then on the next page you will need to enter the details for the certificate you want ...
Name/s
Volume number = 11a
Page = 840
District = Swansea
quarter = Aril - June
Year = 1866

Re: DAVIES/PRICE
Thanks Nikki (and everyone else), this has been a GREAT help!
Re: DAVIES/PRICE
Hmmmm...
I have just used http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/ to find the death certificates for Thomas DAVIES (6 May 1912) and Selina BEVAN (23 Nov 1909). I see that these certs list their parents names (David DAVIES and looks likes Mary HARRY, and Thomas BEVAN and Mary GRIFFITHS).
Is it standard practice to include this type of information?

Not on England and Wales death certs it isn't!
Wish I had ancestry in Scotland if they give you all that info on a death cert!
