Another Marriage Look Up please
« on: Sunday 25 October 09 12:27 UTC (UK) »
Can anyone please help me find a marriage about 1685-92 for John Beckett and Elizabeth?

They had 6 children baptised in Southwell 1692-1704, and a couple of the baptism entries give the family's abode as Westhorpe.

I'd be grateful for any help.

Hi

Are you certain about the Elizabeth?  There are several marriages of Becketts in Southwell at the right time. 

John BECKIT m Jane PIGET Jan 14th 1682
John BECKIT m Mary TURNER Feb 1st 1687

There are also marriages of Henry in 1687 and 1698 and William in 1687. 

If you want details of those just ask.

Thanks for that, NC

Unfortunately, all 6 children baptised are described as children of John & Elizabeth, so an isolated mistake by a parish clerk isn't really possible.

I saw those marriages of Henry and William Beckett and wondered if they might be brothers of John, but couldn't find any suitable baptisms for the 3 of them.

Frustrating!
