Can not find Marriage record from 1939
I have been for a month and a half been hunting for the marriage record for my Grandfather's second marriage. I know they were married because death records for him and his second wife indicate such. Thus beginning the search for the marriage record. I did find an announcement which was short and sweet in a newspaper in a local town in South Holland, Leidschendam, marriage date was not in the ad on have the date it was published (4 July 1939) when looking on Family Search at the images of the town the latest is 1812 and nothing later. If I go to Zandvoort were he was living I can find records in the 1940's. Is there a reason I am limited in Leidschendam or did those get move to another municipality like the Hague? Can anyone help?

It is always interesting to provide names,..not only localities.
The name of your grandfather and the name of his 2 spouses.I would suggest to add childrens names
also.

Thank you for looking, Adrien, that is exactly where I am. All I have found is the newspaper ad announcing that they have been married in 1939. But that is all I can find about the second Marriage. Are you and I related , I have seen you name before on other family entries?
