Another anomaly to add to the list.

Bishopsbourne and Thanington, probably one of the more strange ones!  ???

Marriages that took place at Thanington appear (on Family Search) as having taken place at Bishopbourne.  However, there does not appear to be any duplication, i.e. they do not appear at Thanington as well!  ??? ???

Not sure how extensive this is but, the marriage I had a particular interest in took place in 1649, at Thanington.  Having looked at the Bishopbourne Register there were no marriages from 1648 until mid 1653.
