Title: Anne Theme
Post by: Briagh on Tuesday 02 January 18 17:44 GMT (UK)

Hi Can anyone help me with Anne Theme who married Thomas Reeves in Launton 18/10/1803 THEME is such an awkward surname to research and I wondered if it is common in the area. I would like to know who here parents were please.

Thank you that confirms an entry I found some time ago but Theme appeared on the marriage record so I thought it must be right.

It is always a good idea to check if the person has signed the register as the clergy will write it as they hear it which is not always the same as it has been signed  :)

From the Buckinghamshire Marriage Bonds/License list, there is this entry. ???

Thomas Reeves(minor), of Twyford, to Susanna Thame(minor), of Barton Hartshorn.  Bond granted at Barton Hartshorn. 2nd Oct 1805.

Not sure if these are the same people, or there are errors, or typo's.??

Steve. :)
