Topic: St Mark's Hull - 1880 - does it exist? (Read 567 times)

I have found two marriages on Yorkshire BMD, both at St Mark's, Hull in 1880 of my great grandfather and his cousin, so I went along to the web site where all the parish registers are laid out by county, by town and by parish only to find no record of St Marks in Hull (yes I know it's Kingston upon Hull in the list) and wondered if anybody could shed any light on this? If it was just one record, then I might be tempted to believe that St Mark's is really St Mary's, but that seems less likely for two records. Is it possible that St Mark's records have not been transcribed?
I can always get the certificates (and most certainly will do), but my main purpose for wanting to find St Mark's records was to search to see if any other family members were baptised or married there,

Hi Quizmaster, St, Marks, is in the civil parish of Sutton, and i know Beverley hold a small percentage of certificates.
Regards kooly....

Thanks for the suggestion. Will look at Sutton. There is no problem with obtaining the certificates as Yorkshire BMD has given me the reference numbers. In actual fact, I tried finding the marriage certificate in Beverley in the first instance because the bride was born in Beverley. However as my subsequent research has proven, the family moved to Sutton (which I obviously mistakenly think of as being in Hull) and that is how my g grandparents met.
I'm waiting with bated breath for the burials records on Yorkshire BMD to catch up with births and marriages.

Hi Quizmaster St Marks was down Jennings Street in the parish of Sculcoates,Hull. The Beverley Archives hold the parish registers for the whole of that parish ie. baptisms,marriages and burials. I think they have their own online website, try typing it into Google and see what comes up.

There is a web siite that indicates they hold the records. I may have been reading your post with unjustified optimism, but I took it to mean they had an online search facility. Could you kindly put me right if I am wide of the mark? Alternatively if there is one, confirmation will spur me on to dig deeper.
Thanks QM

It's good to get a mental image of the place. I haven't been to Hull in 25 years and even then it was only briefly. My two weddings took place in 1880. One of them is of particular interest as in the 1871 census we have James (one of the grooms) living with his uncle on Hodgson Street along with cousin William who also married in 1880. For all I know, they may have married on the same day. The odd thing is that there is no subsequent record of James or his wife in the 1881 census and I find that most intriguing. I went to the LDS site with parish records and unfortunately it only goes up to 1837. There's no option now but to go and buy the certificates if I am to make any further progress.

Hello there, quizmaster
I PM'd you, but I thought that I would also post on here.
I have a photograph of the said church that you speak of.
If you would like for me to send it to you, you could send me your email in a PM.
Best wishes  Sgt Tollers

Hi Souxsie,
