Frustrated trying to get an 1846 London marriage record

David Brener

Hi. Through the GRO online website, I sent form with information to get a copy of 1846 JUN marriage record. See below what I sent to the GDS Support Services. Bottomline is how do I contact what they call the local Register office. GRO said they have record not them. Thank you!

Frankly, I am frustrated. How do I contact the Local Register Office to obtain a copy of the marriage record below. The record identified as City of London Vol 2 208B in 1846. Marriage of Abraham Jacobs and Mary Simmons. The GRO office does not have the document. Said I need to contact Local Register Office. Any help in getting an address, link or website to request it would be greatly appreciated. David Brener, USA email brenerda@aol.com

Thank you! David Brener, Ephrata, PA

Brett, Thank you for your answer. The GRO is the organization that told me that I needed to contact the local office. However they did not provide any information as to how to contact the local office which I assume is in London even after I sent them the message quoted in my question.
