Sorry... I'm being useless today!!
still can't find what I'm looking for....I'm looking for marriage of Joseph Job WITTON ( born 1882 West Brom ) son of Job WITTON in BCC tree

http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/family-tree/bcconnections/89999/87718/Job-Witton-Family

I think Joseph Job WITTON married Ellen M JENNINGS ( born 1892 ) ... I think she might also be in the BCC tree.... is this her?

http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/family-tree/bcconnections/90000/21238/Ellen-Jennings-Family

I think Joseph Job WITTON and Ellen M JENNINGS married in West Brom in 1922.... but they don't seem to come up on that BMSGH site?

If you look on the coverage page of WMBMD - you will see that West Bromwich is complete up to 1920 and then from 1929 - 1942. There is a gap from 1921 - 1941.

However, some of West Bromwich isn't included. These are the registers which are now held in another district.

Registered Handsworth, which was in West Bromwich District are now held in Birmingham. So if you find a marriage in the years which have been indexed, then it is almost certainly to be one of the Handsworth churches. There is another area which I can't recall now, I think it might be Moxley.
