Thanks for that Carol. Wouldn't you think that as both are lists of marriage bonds they would both contain the same info. However two bonds which appear in the Archdeacons list don't appear in the Bishop's list.

No I wouldn't because these were two different authorities within the Church of England's ecclesiastical court system.  People could apply to one or the other, not both, so they would only appear on the one list.

That's why I always check both lists :)
