I know nothing of Stephen Masters who was married to my second cousin in Dec 1951 Sussex.
Her name was Cela Creasey 1920-1974.Also from sussex

What i would like to find out is when Stephen was born {also his parents names} and when he died

Did they have any children?


Thank you....

As they were both probably born after the last available census (1911) ........ the best suggestion would be to buy the marriage certificate for Cela and Stephen

That should tell you his age, the name of his father and where he was living at the time of the marriage.

At the moment, there is so little information ............. such as was he the same age as Cela, older, even younger ............... that it is almost like looking for a black cat in the coal cellar, as the saying goes!


The certificate will cost £9.25 from GRO, post and handling included.

Do not, please, buy certificates from any other site, as they will charge you much more
