Jonas West & Hannah Lilley Marriage - Completed

[Pheno]

Hi, can anyone find this marriage for me please as I was going to order the certificate but don't have the detail.

I was assuming that it was very early on following civil registration as the first child Ann was born 6 November 1839 Stony Stratford followed by second and last child George in 1843 Wolverton. Ann's birth certificate gives her mother's info as Hannah West formerly Lilley.

However as Jonas West was born 1798 Broughton By Fenny Stratford and Hannah about 1803 (based on census detail) Abington, Northants maybe the marriage was quite a bit earlier and they just didn't have children until late.

I have all the detail I need about Jonas West both antecedents and descendants but was ordering the certificate to gain info re Hannah Lilley as I do not know her parentage.

Any info regarding Hannah gratefully received.

Regards, Pheno

Modified: As I typed and posted this I realised that I prob hadn't used that invaluable resource FreeReg and the marriage is on there as taking place at Little Linford, Bucks, on 6 October 1836.  Annoyingly just too early for civil registration.

Yes thanks Ray and have moved backwards apace since then.

I am now at a marriage between a Richard Lilley and Elizabeth Law at Podington BDF (in the Parish of Abington).  Do you happen to know what BDF means.  Its in the FindMyPast transcript.
