Is there somwhere online where I can view my parents' wedding certificate?

I don't want to sign up for free trials of anything, neither do I need a copy. I just want to view it, to check the date.

Unfortunately not, Tilly. The only way you can see it is by ordering a copy. You *might* be able to view the church registration on ancestry, but they dont have many recent ones on there.

Thanks, Barmaid. In that case, do you know if it's relatively easy to get out of a free 14 day trial with Ancestry.Co and the like?
I don't think it is costly to get a copy if you really need the info Tilly, these things can be ordered on line..I had to get copies of mum's birth certs for her and it was quite a simple procedure
even if you did you may not find it through them, the records office will have it for sure

Where do I go to order one please, Minty?
Was the marriage England and Wales or Scotland?
you need first of all to know where the marriage took place

Thank you, Barmaid and Minty. That's really helpful.
You could be cheeky and phone Staffs record office and ask them.

If you know where in Stoke (I assume there are several churches, or it may have been reg office) they might be kind and look it up for you.

Have a browse on Staffs RO website. Sometimes you CAN view docs online.

I had mums cert in a week..you can pay more for express...in mum's case I was surprised how easy it was because she had no father her mother was a bit of a player and gave her up after birth
good link barmaid..worth maybe doing that first tilly
Question Author
Lots to look at there. Thanks again, both of you.
Question Author
I'm getting there.

Apparently, the Stoke on Trent Registery is an entirely separate entity from the Staffordshire one.



if you are sure it ws Stoke that will make it easier for you to trace
My library here in Worthing lets you use Ancestry.com for nothing if you are a member.
Might be worth checking out your library?
