Hi Toni,

I found a marriage by licence for one of my relatives in 1790s and got a copy of the licence from the record office in Exeter which has records from the archdeaconry of Cornwall.  The licence itself wasn't hugely informative as it looks like a standard form, but her brother was a witness and it gave a parish for the groom. And it was cheap - less than £2.

Do you have a copy of the parish entry for the one in 1794? Names of witnesses might give a clue?

Hi Osprey

i'll see if i can locate that licence then thanks for the tip

re the mar. in 1794 no i dont have a copy of the PR  however i have seen then entry on Cornwall~opc.org and also i have the Kea marriages disc from CFHS no further information is given

previously i have found these helpful because residence can sometimes be given tieing in the girls with my family but not for this one and maybe i'm missing a trick but i cant find them (Eliz what would be Bullin) in 1841 / 51

Deb i really don't have a clue to what happened to these Elizabeths
the marriages are a possibilty

I have the Kea CFHS bapt. 1730 - 1840

plenty of Bullen / Bullin  bapt. for James and Jemima (7)
2 for children of John and only one for James and Elizabeth Bulling [sic] 01 Dec 1805 Mary
this is 6 years after the marriage so what do you think ?

my family did seem to concentrate on  Kea and Kenwyn but the odd few did stray  which doesnt help

A visit to the record office seems to be called for.

Firstly to look at the parish registers for any further information which hasn't been transcribed.  There may also be a banns register available and burial registers are much less likely to have been transcribed.

Secondly to look at the rest of the documents from the parish chest for any relevant information.

Both any surviving marriage licences and more importantly the supporting affidavits (bonds) may be available at the record office.

Most of the marriage licences from Cornwall aren't in the record office in Truro, but the one in Exeter as Cornwall was an archdeaconry at that time.

So that's 2 visits, Toni, or one extended trip.
