I'd searched the indexes at the GRO several times, the problem was I didn't know the wife's surname, as I hadn't found my ancestors birth cert. Well, I finally found the birth cert of one of their other children (the only one of the 9 who was registered!) and armed with Sarah's name I searched using her. Hey presto! Up came the marriage to a Grant MILLWARD and all the children's births both on FreeBMD and on the IGI too!!!!!

Her name was Rachel Naylor & his David Malkin. Surprise, surprise they couldn't write & so the entry is down as Rachel Nayler & David Machin. Why didn't I look for Nayler before, why?? I love FreeBMD sometimes!!
