[Jan1954]

Hello Hank,

What sort of information are you after? What information do you already have? Do you have the marriage certificate? If not, I would suggest that you obtain a copy as it would provide the fathers' names and occupations, the ages of the happy couple (all being well) and thus aid finding them in any earlier censuses.
