Hi, I'm looking for a marriage between Thomas YEATMAN and Mary PROWER about 1748 in Okeford-Fitzpaine, Shillingstone or nearby parish. I checked Genuki but the years I want are missing. If anyone has access to parish records of that time and can look it up for me I would be most appreciative. Thanks, Leonie.
Are you aware of the OPC site for Dorset? It might be worth contacting the opc for Okeford Fitzpaine; contact details on the Okeford Fitzpaine page on www.opcdorset.com.
Thomas and Mary have a child, John Prower, baptised on 30 July 1751 in the parish.

Thanks Nanny Jan. I do have John's baptism, and a couple of sibs. I started out at the OPC site, I didn't realise you could make contact with them. I'll go back and see what I can find. Leonie.
Well, I couldn't find anything. I keep getting a message saying the URL no longer exists. I was there the other day. I tried going in through Google but the same thing happens. I wonder if this is Ancestry taking over another website. Oh dear.
I've just had a look at the OPCDorset site; there is a message on the home page about email problems giving a general contact email address. Just need to state the parish in the subject line.
I'll PM you with the email address.
