Tindle lookup - Lowick/Tweedmouth
« on: Sunday 05 June 05 16:16 BST (UK) »

Am desperately trying to find the marriage of GEORGE TINDLE to SARAH RUSSELL.  They both lived unmarried at Unthank Square, near Tweedmouth in 1841.  Married sometime before 1850 - son William born then and moved to South Shields by 1851 (Census).
Have been to FRC and looked at every index with no luck.  1851 Census says George is born around 1826 and Sarah the same.  Please can anyone help?

They married at Mordington Toll on 3 November 1849, George Tindale of East Allerdean to Sarah Rusell of Morton Square.
The advert was in the Berwick advertiser.
This was an irregular border marriage ( a bit like Gretna Green)
In Scotland 2 people could just swear their marriage and it was legal.
In England at the time you had to marry in the Church of England.
For this and other reasons, Northumbriam presbyterians often went for a border marriage, as did many of my forebears.

Hi Graham

I can't believe I had the reply so quickly.  Michael Dixon told me about this site but I cannot believe that within 2 hours I had a reply!!
Many thanks.  Now I can start hunting for their births.
