Medway Marriage Licences - MEADHURST/FLEET - COMPLETED
« on: Saturday 15 July 06 16:05 BST (UK) »
Could somone look up the entry for Robert MEADHURST or MEDHURST and ELizabeth FLEET who married by licence on 26 December 1769 at St Nicholas, Rochester?
Does it give any further details eg. names of fathers or occupations?

Many thanks

Have you looked this parish up on the city ark website?
www.cityark.medway.gov.uk (it is free to view)

The entry does not give father's occupations but the names of the witnesses were Richard Meadhurst and Ann Mungenin, (or similar , it is very unclear)

Robert is described as a batchelor of Chatham, and Elizabeth as a spinster of this parish.

Thanks for that, Dave.
 I'd found their marriage on cityark but not the Rochester Marriage Licences

Rochester Marriage Licences are at The Centre for Kentish Studies, Maidstone.

Only one survives for 1769 and it's not mine. >:(

Back to the drawing board.
