COMPLETED Ravensden PR lookup pse - marriage 1629
« on: Thursday 07 February 08 14:43 GMT (UK) »
There's a member submission on the IGI of a marriage on 20 Jan 1629 at Ravensden between Nicholas Spencer (of Cople) and Mary Gostwick (of Willington). As other members have this marriage as taking place variously in 1606 (having been born in 1616), 1626 and 1629 in Marden, Wiltshire, I treat this one with more than my usual scepticism.

If someone could take at look at Ravensden transcript to see if there's fact behind this entry I'd be very grateful

Many thanks

David

Hi David,

The BVRI has the same date 20 January 1629

Nicholas Spencer and Mary Gostwicke

FHL Film 1279177

I expect I am right in assuming that you are aware of the Gostwick Family Genealogy?

Thanks very much Frances. I never think to look at the BVRI for pre 1812 Beds, but Ravensden seems to be the parish that's proves I'm right when I say, as I often do, that virtually all of Beds pre 1812 has been extracted onto the IGI. Ravensden is one parish that seems to have been missed!
