Title: Marriage in Sturminster
Post by: andy_smed on Friday 29 April 05 11:05 BST (UK)

Can anyone help? I am looking for the marriage of an Edward Lambert born 1826 and Sarah born abt 1834. They would have been married probably not long before the first child was born in 1855 I would assume.

I have tried BMD but found nothing as this period hasn't been transcribed to a great extent as yet.

Any help very much appreciated.

18 Apr 1854  Sturminster Newton
Edmund Lambert, lab, s Robert Lambert, butcher  (Edward on banns; barely literate signature on certificate  is Edmund)
Sarah Goddard d Thomas Goddard, lab
Witnesses: Francis Drake and Ann Goddard

FreeBMD confirms that marriage:

June qtr 1854
Sturminster Newton district    vol 5a, page 503

Lambert, Edmund
+ and on the same page +
Goddard, Sarah


No other marriages in Dorset between a Mr Lambert and a Sarah
