French Translation Please -COMPLETED
« on: Tuesday 29 March 11 20:15 BST (UK) »
Any kind french speaker out there?

Don't really need it all translated but looking to see if it mentions the parents of the Bride and Groom,  The Groom's father is called Denis and I can see that it's mentioned in the marriage record but not sure in what context.....

Many thanks (merci beaucoup)

I am having second thoughts about James and Mary being the "eldest" children of their parents - the writing is so difficult to read! - but I am sure of their parentage, except I can't make out the mothers' surnames, but your guess is as good as mine on that one.
