Title: Two MATKIN marriages in Oakham 1909
Post by: Newfloridian on Monday 26 October 15 11:37 GMT (UK)

I would appreciate help with the marriages of two sisters in the Spring / Summer 1909. Is it possible for a look up of the marriage register to find the date(s) of the ceremonies. The entries are on different pages of the index but are in the same quarter.

MATKIN, Constance Sarah to Robert WHITTLE: Oakham 7a 703 Sep 1909
MATKIN, Dora to  Herbert Arthur SPITE:          Oakham 7a 707 Sep 1909

Many thanks

Alan

Hi Rosie

Not sure, but there was a strong Baptist tradition running through the family.
