G'day Iris A William Whaite could have married a Hannah Gay at Bristol in 1848 in the September Quarter according to FreeBMD. It's most likely that FreeBMD will also have entries for the births that you mentioned. From there it is fairly easy to order certificates online from the GRO. You will need to have the details from freeBMD for each person's certificate. Each certificate costs about $A16.00. It takes about 15 - 21 days for certificates to arrive in Australia by post from the UK. The website your aunt's husband needs for freeBMD index is http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/cgi/search.pl and for the GRO certificate ordering service is http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/default.asp Hope this helps.

Thankyou Ray, I had forgotten about the Freebmd website, Brilliant. My Cousin's WHAITE family are connected to JOHN GAY, so finding Hannah GAY and the connection from her, now I have to find more information on her side now, her Father was John GAY as well.
