Looking for Mary Rich !!
« on: Tuesday 04 October 05 21:40 BST (UK) »

Hi
Wonder if any kind soul out there can help??

I am looking fro Mary Rich and any of her family, I know she was born in Croydon abt 1794, she married John Fairman in 1827 and thereafter seem to have lived in Southwark.

Also I know they married in St Saviour, but how do I find an index for the marriage certificate, I don't know what quarter etc.

Any help would be wonderful thankyou

Unfortunately you won't get a marriage certificate through the usual GRO since the event took place before 1837 when official registration started.

You need to check the Parish Registers for this marriage, sorry I don't know whether by St Saviour you mean the church/parish or is this a district in London.

If you have a Family History Centre or LDS Centre nearby you should be able to order the film for the local church, some of them only have the bride and grooms names and dates although if you are lucky maybe there will be other information in the Register too.

Hi Girlstitcher

Films of parish registers for St Saviour Southwark (I assume this is where the marriage took place) are available to view at:

Southwark Local Studies http://www.southwark.gov.uk/DiscoverSouthwark/LocalStudiesLibrary/SourcesFamilyHistory.html

London Metropolitan Archives
http://www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/Corporation/leisure_heritage/libraries_archives_museums_galleries/JAS/lma/lma.htm

Also, as suggested by Mary, films may also be available to view at your local LDS family history centre. See the library catalogue and list of locations http://www.familysearch.org

Best wishes

Thank you to you both for your prompt replies and help.

I will go down that line and hope that I can find out a little more about my
great grandmother X3

Tons of thanks....................................................
