banns or license?
« on: Thursday 20 March 08 21:10 GMT (UK) »
Hi

I was looking at the details of transcribed registers Wrexham for sale on Clwyd FHS.  If I were to purchase marriage registers, which would be best to go for by Banns or License?

Thanks

Hi Simone

To my knowledge the parish record transcripts produced by Clwyd FHS include marriages by Banns or license.

Most marriages by licence are listed on the National Library Marriage Bonds link:

Wrexham would be in the St Asaph Diocese lisdtings.
