I am seeking information about the ancestry of Jules Joseph A. ADAM, who, in spite of his English sounding name I believe have been born in Belgium on June 23 1893.

I know of his marriage to Mary GURR and that he died at Hailsham, Sussex, UK, in 1976.

I have sought a marriage certificate to find his parents and was told a copy could not be found

Assurance that his parents were Oliver Joseph ADAM and Aimee CARLIER would solve many problems for me.

THank you

Thank you very much, Pauline

I appreciate your kindness.

I was hoping that the certificate might identify, with some certainty, Jules' parents and their location
