We have started this before:

Did you buy George and Betsy's marriage cert?

Once we know that Betsy's father was definitely William James Fisher and also the name and occupation of George's father, we should be able to help you some more.

This is the most likely candidate for George, but I would hate to tell you something that is wrong (and waste time doing lookups on the wrong individuals!) so we need that cert!

You don't need the marriage date to order the cert, just the GRO details (year, quarter, volume and page number, district and the names of the marriage parties). Don't pay more than £9.25 for a certificate.
