Hello Carol,

The parish registers for Audlem are on The Cheshire Parish Register Database:

http://www.csc.liv.ac.uk/~cprdb/

The marriage of Thomas Dykes to Ann Frith is on there and it shows they were both of Audlem parish. They married by Licence as well. You may find baptisms for Thomas and Ann on this database too.

The Licence for the marriage in Chester, Holy Trinity, should be held at the Cheshire Record Office in Chester.

The details for the children of the other marriages would be held on microfilms of the parish registers for Acton, St Mary. These are not on the CPRDB at the moment. You can access these, either in the Cheshire RO, or in Nantwich Library. It might be worth searching the CPRDB however, the children may have been baptised in Nantwich, the PRs for Nantwich are on the CPRDB.

Jo.
