Reading this book
« on: Monday 02 July 18 14:25 BST (UK) »
Hello,

This is the book: https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=HOdMAQAAMAAJ&q=boon+of+snailwell&dq=boon+of+snailwell&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjr_6nrv4DcAhVPzaQKHb5IAgMQ6AEIKTAA

Frustratingly, it contains some reference to the marriage on page 33 of a 'Thos. Boon of Snailwell', but I cannot view the book because it is a snippet view. Can anyone find a copy anywhere that is viewable online? The book is entitled 'The Publications of the Harleian Society, Volume 69' and is from 1918.

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Adam

I found a way! Thomas Boon and Martha Sheldrake, married in 1694. Exactly what I was looking for. Can anyone find any christenings for them in Snailwell?

Hi

You will note from marriage details that Thomas Boon was single but Martha was a widow.

FMPast has info on a marriage licence for this couple, in collection of Cambridge Ely Diocsis Marriage
Licences dated 26 April 1694.  This is a transcript only, obtaining copy of original may give additional information.

There is also Bpt of a son Thomas Boone son of Thomas & Martha Boone Bpt 9.6.1698 at Snailwell
Again only a transcript so you would have to check.

Just clues but they may help

I've noted all that down, thanks. Can Martha's first marriage be found? Or burials/christenings for the two?
