Someone on here with that surname has
Robert Marshall 1873 born Close House Durham as on 1911 census posted earlier.
Gladys Marshall 1897
Winnifred Marshall 1914.
Audrey Marshall 1924
Mr G Henderson 1922.

Maybe you could contact him to see if he has info you need.

Are you able to copy the cert & send it (you can attach documents to personal messages on here).
If you can, one of us might be able to decipher the writing, you never know!

Interesting that Robert Marshall on that 1911 census is a barman.

Where do those addresses come from?
Also, it might be helpful if you could make out James' 2nd name on Winifred's marriage cert - whoever he is, it might offer a clue.

If you don't have it, I think you need Winifred's birth certificate to check the address and it should give her mother's occupation if she was unmarried.

Again, if you don't have it, Winifred's marriage certificate may give an occupation for Jimmy Marshall so perhaps he could be identified on either the 1911 census or the 1939 register.

I don't see Winifred or her husband showing on the 1939 register in Durham.

Ok so have spoken to my mum who only remembers sketchy information, the person named on Winifred's marriage certificate as her father was known to them as uncle jimmy Marshall so shared the same name and to be honest maybe could have been Winifred's father but my mum is not sure so he is not as I previously said Winnifred and Audrey's brother, no one knows if Gladys had anymore children but we don't think so

"Winifred named her brother on her marriage certificate as her Father" is how your OP read to me and I asked if I was correct.

A later post seems to say that Winifred had a sister Audrey, (Gladys' 2 children?) so was James brother to Gladys rather than to Winifred? As he would then be older and you say he was a Butcher we might be able to find him on a census.

Did Great Gran have any further children that you know of after she married, and if so do you know any names?

Was Audrey older than Winifred or younger? did she have another initial?

going by 1918 +/- 10 year with mmn Marshall there is
1913 birth mmn Marshall in Shardlow RD, Derbyshire and
1921 in Tynemouth Northumberland
1923 in Horncastle, Lincolnshire
1925 in Liverpool
1926 in Rochdale
then Audrey D 1924 Sunderland
and Audrey E 1928 Birmingham

There are 2 Gladys Marshalls Sunderland on the 1911 census, born 1897/8. Obviously you can't be sure where she was born!

Natalie, do you have an address on her birth cert?

This birth is in the same area as her marriage and the mother's maiden name is Marshall, so could this be your Nan - it would make her 21 when she married ( rather than 13)

Her birth certificate could possibly name her Father if he agreed to it but as she was registered under the same surname as her Mother then I would expect not. In which case, it's unlikely that you will find out who he was unfortunately

When and where did your Nanna and Great Gran die Natalie - if we find the right person we can work on a year of birth from that.

EDIT - birth posted as you posted your reply.
