Perhaps they didn't marry? Or they married somewhere other than England/Wales..........or they married AFTER the child was born......... Reg

I am trying to establish a connection, but am having to do it the hard way as the person who holds the key does not reply to any messages – I believe the connection is two step-uncles of hers, 2nd cousins of mine, but I am trying to find out if he they are still alive or not, or if anyone in her family knows what happened to them. I have her and her parents, and the reference for her father’s birth in 1930 shows Simonsen as the fathers name and Simbrick as the mothers name. I have searched back from 1930 to 1918 but cannot find a marriage between these two names at all – I have double checked the birth image and it is crystal clear. Can anyone else see this marriage, or does anyone have any other suggestions? Thanks Looby
