Cumberland Lookup Requests / Cumbria FHS pre-1986 article J V Harrison
« on: Monday 21 June 10 12:33 BST (UK) »
I am trying to locate evidence for the marriage of my gt-gt grandparents who were apparently married at Gretna Green on 30th June 1849. They are not listed in the Achievements Gretna website, although a sister is there.
I have been informed by a distant cousin that the marriage was recorded in a Cumbria FHS newsletter article by J V Harrison - she adds the comment "this would be before 1986".
My ancestors John Parker and Mary Armstrong were from Knarsdale. Mary's brother Robert Armstrong was said to have married Sarah Bailes on the same day.
Since the Carlisle Records Office is currently closed, can anyone suggest how I might locate and/or search pre-1986 FHS newsletters.
Thanks,
Kath
