Siston Parish Records Lookup Request
« on: Tuesday 06 February 18 10:20 GMT (UK) »
On 19.7.1701 Thomas Holborough married Joan Willis at Siston.  I am anxious to know if any information is given regarding the parishes where they were resident.  Thank you.

The Bristol Marriage Index states that Joan was from Durham. No residence given for Thomas so presumably he was from the Bristol area.

I wonder if that might be Dyrham, Gloucestershire, rather than Durham? Just a thought.

A possibility. They married by Licence so if you can find the Licence that might give more info.

Thank you both for your help.  I think Joan probably was Dyrham as this is where the couple lived and I will try to find the marriage licence to see if I can get anything further on Thomas.
