................Click to return to Marriages Index


I have been asked if I am including All the marriages in All the parishes and the answer is Yes. I hope there are not a lot of mistakes. I created these indexes in the day before I had my laptop. So I would visit the FHC all day writing the entries out by hand and then come home and type for several hours. Although I tried very hard to be true to the way the original registration was recorded and to follow their spelling etc, it is a real possibility that mistakes did happen on occasion. Neither was their writing always as legible as I could have wished. So I would caution everyone - if there is a marriage which is important to you - order in the film and check it out. That way you'll also get the details that I didn't include in the index!  Monta Salmon

The format is as follows (although they are not separated by a " / " )



Page / Entry Number / Date / Church / other possible remarks
Groom's name / age / Father / Mother
Bride's name / age / Father / Mother
