Hi Everyone, Just wondered if anyone has access to original marriage transcripts. I'm trying to find out who the witnesses were for a couple of marriages I'm looking at at the moment. Sarah Hillier - Thomas Cleverly - marriage 28th May 1812, Overton Wilts. Sarah Hillier - James Fowle - marriage 19th Dec 1819, Stanton St Bernard, Wilts. Sarah Hillier - John Minty - 20th Oct 1815, Bishops Cannings, Wilts. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you
Well, I have the Nimrod Marriage Index (courtesy of the Wilts FHS) and the witnesses have not been transcribed. But, if you don't get a better offer, the next time I am there I will happily look at the originals for you. My daughter is nagging me to go to Devizes soon. I could add these to your shopping list.
I am a touch wefty with getting there but I am supposed to be going in the next few weeks. Fingers crossed (they owe me a good pub lunch apart from anything else - incentive or what ) so rummage about and see what else you might need while I am there.
Thks Sue your a star. Hope you get your pub lunch though Iv'e not been on the forum for absolute ages because I just cannot find anything at all on this family so I'd just had enough and decided to have a long break from searching.
