I am often asked out of birth, marriage or death certificates, which gives the most information and without a doubt it is a marriage certificate. There are 24 elements and in no significant order they are:
1.Year & date. 2.Whether by banns or license. 3.Where the marriage took place. 4.Building. 5.Officiating officer. 6. Name of groom. 7. Name of bride. 8 & 9. Addresses of where each was residing at time of marriage. 10 &11. Occupations of both. 12 &13. Names of fathers. 14 & 15 Occupations of fathers. 16 &17. Ages of bride & groom. 18. Number in the register. 19 & 20 Names of witnesses. 21 & 22 signatures of bride & groom. 23& 24 Signatures of witnesses.
Just hoping I am not taking coals to Newcastle with this post, but I have known marriage certificates to solve queries, locate people and answer many questions.
