Marriage at St John's, Preston 1862

[Rowlandson]

Hi Everyone,

Im hoping that some might be able to help or advise me as to the cheapest way that I can get hold of a marriage entry for the above Church of St John's in Preston, for the 2nd March 1862, between an Amos Rimmer and an Ann Holmes

Does anyone perhaps happen to know if the local record office for this area has microfilmed the registers for this church. I already have all the information from OPC for Lancashire, so cant really justify buying the certificate, but would really like to see the entry.

Many thanks,
Rowlandson

Hi KGarrad,

Many thanks for this, unfortunately Family Search doesn't have a copy.

Think Im going to have to write to Lancashire Record Office.

Thank You,

Hi

Familysearch does have a copy, you will have to make yourself a member, I will send a link but I'm not sure if it will work using my account but can send full details if you wish

Made myself a member, and I've just seen the actual entry.

Sincere apologies to KGarrad for not finding it earlier, you're both obviously better at searching the Family Search site than me !!!

Many Thanks Once Again !!!

Oh no you don't!
I have never made myself a member of FamilySearch?
And I found the marriage quite easily

When you load FamilySearch, simply click on "Search"; no need to login.

Really ?? It must not like me , I had to join and sign in

Where did it say that you had to join, or sign up?

I have always ignored the bit on the homepage that says Sign In or Free Account.
And just click on Search, then Records.
