I can't remember whether I've asked you this before, as my husband's late brother had already researched the place and date of the marriage. What I'd like to know is if any parents or witnesses are listed.
The marriage was between Richard Whittaker and Susannah Moss and took place on 28 June 1795 at Stockport Parish Church, Cheshire.
Many thanks
Lizzie
Hi Lizzie,
The information I have is only from an index, but I have checked the marriage and it does say that Susannah was a spinster and Richard was a hatter.
As you have the exact date you might want to order a photocopy of the parish register entry from Cheshire Records Office:

Hi Lizzie,
I'm at Stockport Library this afternoon, would you like me to look at this marriage entry for you.

Yes please, although I have just ordered a copy, only cost £1 plus 45p postage, so if it doesn't give any info, it hasn't broken the bank.
We would like to know if Richard's parents (or father at least) are mentioned and if it states where Susannah comes from (and maybe her father). He died in 1836, so isn't on the 1841 census, but as far as we know he was born in Cheshire. However, Susannah, who we think died in the mid 1840s is on the 1841 census and it shows she was not born in County.
Lizzie
ps. I wonder if there are any marriage bonds or similar available?

There never seems to be much more info on these earlier marriages other than witnesses but you could be lucky.
I don't know much about bonds, I'll ask at the library.
Be in touch later.
Pat.

I had a problem this morning, got a notification which indicated a reply from you and was in actual fact my own message coming back. Must be gremlins in the works.
I had a look at the marriage entry, unfortunately there is nothing more to add to what you already know exept that they were married by banns and both made x's
The witness, just one, was James Clarkson and as he's on a lot of the other marriages as witness I think he was a church official.
Sorry I didn't get to you before you'd ordered the copy from Cheshire.
Pat

Thanks for looking Pat. As I've only paid out £1.45 for a copy of the parish record, it doesn't really matter that I didn't see your offer to look at the library before I spent my money  It's always nice to have "official" paperwork in any case.
Lizzie
ps. Still didn't get the notification about your posting, although I had one from a thread that I started - very strange.

Just done a search on the 1841 census for James Clarkson, there were two both aged 50, both living in Stockport, but one was a Parish Clerk, so I guess he's the witness.

Yes Lizzie, I thought he must be.
As for the notification I think you didn't get one about my posting because I got it instead. Why I would get my own post back, haven't a clue. Perhaps I did something wrong.
Anyway it seems to be OK now.
Pat.

I'm locking this topic as it is too long and is causing problems with notifications etc.
If you have a Cheshire pre 1837 marriage request please post it on the lookup board as a separate thread.
Thanks
Jean
