Hi I very much doubt that you will be able to access BDMS in the time frame you need. You have to have a good reason to want marriages after 1956, be next of kin or a party involved. You might be able to find a death notice in the relevant local paper which may give his daughters married names, but this did not always happent. You might have to hope they join GR one day. Diane
