[francoso]

Would SKS please look up all marriages at Great Waldingfield on:

A) 01 Jan 1710
B) 01 Oct 1710
C) 13 Jun 1710

In particular, any or all of the following: who married whom, witnesses, parishes of origin.

A big ask and any hep would be much appreciated.

I can't see a marriage for 1st Jan but 13 June the marriage was between John Butcher and Mary Motte and 1st October between Thomas Gridley and Anne Thurston.

The only other couple to marry there in 1710 were John London and Ellen Firmin on 13th February

These are transcriptions only and give the basic details although back in 1710 that is probably all you would get - the name of the couple and the date.

Thanks for that, Emeltom. Can I ask what your source is for these records, and who transcribed them, please so that I can follow up if necessary ?

To look specifically for Great Waldingfield I used dustydocs.com.au as that allows you to specify county and town. Basically you get the same information that is available on familysearch without all the gen from all the other places in the county. The marriages I gave you were the only three to come up for 1710. I haven't got a clue who the transcriber was.

Again, thanks for that Emeltom. I'll check out the dustydocs.com website, and this is basically the IGI from familysearch.org

You won't get any witnesses on Church of England marriages before 1754.  They came in with the new format registers under the Hardwicke Marriage Act.

Thanks for that info, smudwhisk. I suppose what I really need is someone to look at copies of the original parish records for Marriages on those three days.
