Bride's Parish

[rebeccaclaire86]

I've found what looks to be my ancestors marriage in the London Clandestine registers, however I am really struggling to decipher the bottom line where it says the bride's parish.  It may be a mistranscription of Brickendon which was near the groom's parish of Hertford, but am unsure about the words in the middle.  I think the last word is 'by' as it is followed by a signature of the person who conducted the marriage, and other marriages on this page follow this pattern.

Would appreciate any thoughts on what the bottom line says!

If you found that on Ancestry, have a look at the other entry. I find it fairly illegible too, but hopefully one of the experts familiar with the style of writing will be able to interpret one or the other.

It looks like Brickington in Vit.......? 

The other entries have a place or parish name and then the county, though there are variations in the format. I can't think what county or other place might start with a V ..

Can you please tell me what it says after Labr on 2nd last line before Burton as this would be a help?

Bottom line looks to be Brickington in V_lla_y? Dist (District)? but knowing what's before Burton could point to where?

Annie, I think it is "and Sarah" Barton. The "and" is shortened and a symbol used. (ampersand?)

marriage - 6th September 1731
The entry reads something like:
Edward Venables of St John in Hertford Labr and Sarah Barton of Brickington? in V....
by I Gaynam? 

(transcribed on Ancestry as both  'Brickington in Pedict' and 'Brickinton Villaug')

Would the word after Brickington be village ?

Maybe not

Thanks Ruskie 

You're right, couldn't fathom it at all, probably focusing too much on where

Claire,

I initially thought that but there seems to be a bit of a gap between the 'a' & the 'g' with another letter?

Edit, I can't even find a Brickington

I think:

1.  After the word Lab(oure)^r is a B meaning Bachelor.

2.  The last word on the last line is Sp(inste)^r.

3.  The first word on the last line is Brickington.

I know:

1.  The second last word on the last line is p^(re)dict = aforesaid (in Latin).

So wherever Brickington in V_ll__ is, it (or at least one of them) is mentioned in the register somewhere above this record.
