My family history research has recently progressed from civil registration to parish records and I'm not finding it easy! For example, I'm confident that I've found the baptism record of my GG-Grandmother which is as follows :-
Baptism: 22 Aug 1819 St Elphin, Warrington, Lancashire, England
Martha Smith - Daur of Thomas Smith & AnneAssuming (rightly or wrongly) that her parents' marriage was at the same church a few years prior, I came up with 3 possibilities :-
Marriage: 25 Feb 1813 St Elphin, Warrington, Lancashire, England
Thomas Smith - (X), of This Parish
Ann McCormack - (X), of This Parish
Marriage: 20 Nov 1814 St Elphin, Warrington, Lancashire, England
Thomas Smith - of This Parish
Ann Bridge - of This Parish
Marriage: 31 Oct 1815 St Elphin, Warrington, Lancashire, England
Thomas Smith - of This Parish
Ann Darbyshire - (X), of This Parish
How do I determine which of these is the marriage I'm looking for? I really would appreciate some guidance as to where I should go from here.
