Liverpool Marriage Lookup
« on: Monday 26 September 16 07:31 BST (UK) »
I'm looking for a Liverpool marriage lookup at the records office to try and confirm a suspected ancestor married more than once. I can't make it there myself as I'm not in the UK.Is anyone out there willing to have a look if they are going there? It would be much appreciated.

Do you know the location of the marriage - there are a lot of marriage venues in Liverpool?  LancashireBMD may be of some help in this respect.  Ancestry also have a good number of marriage entries on-line.

Perhaps if you gave the names, we might be able to find the records.

Transcriptions and NBI are merely finding aids.  They are NOT a substitute for original record entries.

Hi,
What I've found on the ancestry site is a marriage of Thomas Moore in the BMDs but don't know which of the women listed he married.
I think it may have been the Isabella Jackson listed.
What I need to know is if it was indeed Isabella Jackson,Thomas' occupation, parents names, addresses etc
I could order a certificate from the GRO, but it seems a waste if it's not my ancestor.
The marriage was 1890
JUl-Aug-Sept
Vol 8b
Page 116
Any help or advice would really be appreciated.This my great great grandfather is proving elusive after his previous marriage.

According to Lancashire BMD,

Thomas Moore married Isabella Jackson at Liverpool, Our Lady & St. Nicholas & St. Anne in 1890.

I checked Lancashire OPC, but the event was not indexed.

Someone might be able to see the parish register entry for you.

From Lancashire BMD - Thomas Moore and Isabella Jackson at Our Lady and St Nicholas and St Anne.

I can only see reference to marriages to 1840 on the Lancashire OPC website.  TNA says that the records are at Liverpool Record Office.

Thanks guys!
Thanks to you I now know it was Isabella as I suspected.It would be great if anyone heading down to the records office could take a look.
If not, I'll have to order the cert and hope my suspicions are correct.
Thank you again for your help:)

Thanks Blue,

I got a copy a while back and it confirmed my great great grandfather actually married 3 times.There is still a lot of mysteries to figure out I think!

Thanks again

John
