I went to order a marriage certificate at gro.gov.uk, and looked it up to
double check the references on freeBMD. However, I couldn’t find the
marriage! A very kind person had helped me earlier and sent me the
following information:
...marriage for Thomas Smith and Louisa Williams, September quarter 1844
Monmouth 26. 71
I would love to be able to order the certificate but need the GRO index
details. Can anyone help me discover them?

Dear Tamara,
The FreeBMD database is not yet complete, but I've checked the entry in the
complete GRO marriage index on Ancestry.co.uk.
The entries for Thomas Smith and Louisa Williams are exactly as you've
quoted:
----------------------
Marriages registered in July, August, September, 1844
SMITH Thomas, Monmouth Regn District, Vol 26, Page 71
WILLIAMS Louisa, Monmouth Regn District, Vol 26, Page 71
----------------------
This is all the information you need to purchase a certificate from the
General Register Office's on-line ordering webpage:

Kind regards,
John
