Mary Boswell b 1820 in Olney, Bucks
« on: Friday 01 June 18 17:30 BST (UK) »
Hi,
I’m currently searching for the parents of Mary Boswell born in 1820 in Olney Bucks. I have found two records that could possibly show a marriage for her parents, one in 1818 and one in 1819, but am unable to identify which one is correct. I believe her mothers name was Sarah as she is listed living with a Sarah 25 years her senior in the 1841 census.

Did Mary marry as the certificate should name her father

BOSWELL    Mary

Quite a high number so possibly registry office.

Using the registration details, and BucksFHS Church finder facility, the marriage occured at the  Congregational Church in Newport Pagnell.
For details of the marriage, you may find it's worth spending £1 for a marriage search with BucksFHS.  Cheaper than a cert or a PDF, if it's available.  If not found, no £1 fee will be charged.

Unless I've gone cross eyed, 4 years ago on rootschat somebody was seeking the chap she married -and that post gives Mary's parents and generally discusses records/who is who etc.
