George Knight
« on: Tuesday 26 June 18 10:39 BST (UK) »
Can someone do a marriage  lookup for me at Guernsey?
George Knight was a soldier in the 3rd Royal Veteran Battalion on Jersey.
He had 7 children born on Jersey. He died in 1834 St.Helier.
I cannot find a marriage for him on Jersey. Could there be one on Guernsey between about 1800 and 1804.

Thank You
regards
Lorayne

Dear Rosie
Thank you for that. I had found that one. I just thought there might be a marriage closer to the birth of first child which I have as Sarah b.1804 at St. Lawrence, Jersey.

Regards
Lorayne
