UK Marriage Certificates 1837 to 1917

I have loaded and linked the majority of available Marriage Certificates for UK PIMBLE / PYMBLE marriages in the period 1837 to 1917.

These either comprise copies of original certificates I have bought or alternatively Faux certificates created from transcriptions of the certificates I have viewed at the appropriate County Archives office.

Visit the PIMBLE / PYMBLE website Pimble/Pymble website

Certificates currently cost £7 a time, rising to £9 shortly, if you have copies that you are prepared to donate then I would be very pleased to receive them.
