Were marriage certificates, granted after banns, recorded? In the groom's parish of Bagillt, Flintshire, Wales, the marriage banns was recorded. At the bottom it says "Certificate granted Sept 14th 1835". Would a copy of that certificate have been recorded? What would the certificate say? Is there value in searching for it? The marriage was recorded in the bride's parish of Llanferras, Denbighshire, Wales but I can't find record of the banns. I'm hoping to find a marriage record which mentions the names of the groom's parents and the certificate mentioned in the banns from Bagillt is my next idea.

There is nowhere that a copy of that certificate would have been recorded.

Whether or not parents names were recorded in Parish Marriage or Banns Registers in England and Wales before 1837 varied widely -- there was no requirement to do so, so it was dependent on the whim of the parish incumbent. From the start of Civil Registration in 1837, father's names and occupations were recorded but even today there is no requirement to record details of mothers.
