Completed: Marriage: Christ Church Ince 1877

[Justanothersmith]

Hi

I was wondering if someone could look up the following marriage for me:

William Blinkhorn & Ellen Hilton; Christ Church Ince; June quarter 1877; registered at Wigan Volume 8c page 36; Lancashire BMD reference C19/2/56.

I've found 2 Williams born about 1856 and need to ascertain which one married Ellen.
One William's father is James; the other's father is Thomas.

Thanks

Doug

Hi
 have you found your man yet? getting the marriage certificate is really the only way to confirm who was is who.
I can see them both 1871 census
fathers either James or Thomas Blinkhorn
you need that certificate to tick the right box.
just a suggestion!

Hi Cardiff

I think that is the reason for asking for the marriage lookup - Doug clearly knows that William married Ellen but needs the lookup in the parish registers to confirm which of the 2 possibles was William's father

If somebody is prepared to lookup the marriage at the records office to get that info -there is no need to buy a copy of the cert

Hi Doug,
