Hi

The quote Elder or Younger would indicate a second marriage for the elder John, probably by Licence.

Do not know your family but suggest that the marriage 17th August 1746 Manchester
John Renshaw = Ann Holbrook of Stretford married by Licence, is the second marriage for John Snr.

He then produces in Stretford
Henry 1748. No status mentioned
Robert 1752 no status mentioned
(After sons marriage 1755)
Robert 1759 status elder

Then his son John Jnr marries Ann Gibbon 8.2.1755 and produces
Betty 1755 status John younger
James 1757.  “.        “.    “

There is one exception that is a Betty 1756 no status given.

Think the vicar did a good job is separating the children.

There may be other children for both couples, but hope this explains the necessity for elder and
Younger.

Hi

At least FindMyPast give a discount of 15%, Ancestry just take full amount with no discount.

Decided that I will cancel my Ancestry account, up for renewal in February, as I receive no emails from them not even notification when they are about to take my annual sub.

Complained many times, they have my correct email etc.  Something wrong with their auto system as they can contact me when they manually reply to complaint.

So after many years giving up.

Hi

Just to remind every one re marriage, records only state the parish of residence at the time of
The marriage, it does not mean the bride/groom was born in that parish.

The images for this Marriage Bond are on Find my Past.

Hi,

Re the marriage in Lancashire, posted by Trish, the register states
John Holmes was of Leyland Parish and Isabel Low was of Standish Parish at the time of their marriage.

Please can you give more info as to how you know Isabell was born Barlow, Derbys.
