Title: Marriage Licence lookup please
Post by: Gigi on Wednesday 05 December 12 21:02 GMT (UK)
Hi Deborah,

Could you please see if there are any marriage licences for "Johnson" in Appleby or Hilton.

And also "Bow" in Dufton.

Thanks in advance,

Gillian

Hi Gillian
I've had a look for Bow(e)(s) and there do not appear to be any in Dufton but there are some in Brough.  Are these of interest?

Could you narrow the scope for the Johnson query - either for particular names or for a time range or preferably both?  I can't do a lookup on both surname and place combined.
regards
Deborah

Hi Deborah,

Thanks for looking.

Yes I would be interested in the Bows of Brough.

For the Johnsons:
Any Ralph Johnson
Also John Johnson St Michael's Appleby about 1715
Thomas johnson about 1771 St M.

Thanks

Title: Johnson marriage licences

No Ralph Johns(t)one(s) at all.

A couple of John Johnson marriages in Tundergarth in 1714.  No Johns in Appleby between 1700 and 1730.

I'm not sure what St M is but I don't think there are any Thomas there between 1763 and 1788.  Can you clarify?

Sorry that it's not more helpful.  Bows to follow.
Deborah
