I am trying to find out how I can get my great great great grandfather's marriage certificate but I'm having problems finding their marriage details. I know he was born in 1801 and I think he was born in Cockerton, Darlington. His wife's name was Elizabeth Martin and I think she was born in Yorkshire in 1803. I have got there son's birth certificate, Robinson Wilson who was born in 1840 at Cockerton, Darlington and I can find them in the 1841 and 1851 census living in Cockerton which gives me archive ref of HO107, book 20, folio, 4, page 2, piece no. 303 but I cannot find any marriage certificate details. Could I please ask advice on how to move forward in my search?

The image of the parish record for the marriage is on Findmypast. I will try to attach it to a private message and send it to you but I'm not good with images so if it doesn't work I will send it later tonight when my son is here to do it for me.

Hope you can send the image greyghost. I've saved it to my desktop but can't figure out how to add it to a message.

EDIT - I think I might have managed it. When you get the message Amyhenry click on the paperclip at the right hand side and then click "get attachments" at the bottom.
