I would suggest that you start here if you have not already looked. NB these are separate databases so use the first browse category to find the marriage and the second to find the death. You can expedite your search if you use the advanced search tab, at top of page, once you are in the browse section. Type in year-month-day xxx-xx-xx and click on the search button. Hatched, matched and dispatched are usually on page 4. For the 1917 search you should start on page 4 and look at subsequent pages for these items.
