    1. [ANS] WILLIAM AND ELIZA WHALLEY BOTH BORN 1826 ENGLAND
    2. Tracey Evans

    3. I am trying to find out information in relation to William and Eliza Whalley (nee Rook). They were married in England in 1844 Ecclesfield. How do I find marriage certificate. I know that they came to Australia as I have a copy of their children's (4) listing as being baptised at Newcastle Christ Church Cathedral in 1853. After that they seem to disappear. I can find no death notice for either of them. Hope someone can help. Thanks. Tracey.

    3. Tracey, Their marriage appears to be listed at FreeBMD http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/cgi/search.pl William (he's entered as Whallay) and Eliza Rook, marriage registered September quarter 1844, Ecclesfield, 22/123. You can order UK certificates direct from the GRO - around £9.25 each, but they don't give nearly as much information as Australian certificates. You will get father's name and occupation for bride and groom but won't get where the parties were born or their mother's names - ages often shown as just "full age". https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/default.asp you will need to register (free) and they accept online payment. You need the names of the parties, the registration year and quarter, the place of registration and the references. There are also agents who will order from the GRO on your behalf but this is more expensive. Cannot identify them in NSW indexes, Qld, SA, WA or Vic deaths to 1910 or NZ deaths. Perhaps the family returned to UK?
