Chidgey "lost" Pilot

Gents,
A real long shot here.
I have a Sergeant Chidgey (Pilot) on 218 Squadron between April 1941 and August 1941. (Sadly the ORB does not record his initials or service number)
In late July / August 1941 he is given leave to get married (not confirmed) sadly while on leave his crew are killed while being skippered by Wing Commander J L H Fletcher (August 3rd 1941 Hannover) He does not reappear in the ORB again.
My question is in two parts :
Can anyone help / advice where I can look / locate a marriage cert for this sergeant pilot.
There is an A/S/Ldr Edward John Chidgey DSO DFC of No.35 (PFF) Squadron recorded in the LG, I am not saying this is the same man but the surname Chidgey is unusual. Anyone on the forum research No.35 Squadron, I know that S/Ldr Chidgey passed away in 2006.
I have had no luck with the contact addresses for No.35 Squadron Association.
Any help appreciated

Steve
