Hi,

This could the marriage, it looks like the date was mistranscribed as the thirteenth instead the thirtieth.


Thos WARD
Mary WORTHLEY  ?
both OTP
Married in this Church Banns
Thirtieth day of June, One Thousand eight Hundred and six
Both made their mark
Witnesses:  John FOXON, Wm LESTER Jun


I searched FindMyPast,  Leicestershire Parish Records Browse,  search for Shepshed without a date, the search only seems to bring up the start date for the records not dates that the records contain.

Shepshed Marriages 1791-1807,  page no.98.


Regards,
Daisy

To Daisypetal and Neale, I have spent the last 2 hours trying to find this on FindMyPast, using the info you've given me and every time there are no results found. Leicestershire marriages in the browse set. Shepshed (tried both spellings) no date.  FreeREG doesn't appear to cover Shepshed ....all the info you gave me seems to fit.
 I will work on it at some point but I need a rest from it, so grateful to you both.

Hi,

I'm sorry that you couldn't find the marriage. they hid it well ::)  I went round in circles for a while too :)

I hope you don't mind but I've put links to each step of my search as I got dizzy trying to explain where FindMyPast had hidden it :)

This is how I eventually found it,


FindMyPast  All Record Sets
https://www.rootschat.com/links/01rjz/


Searched for Leicestershire,
https://www.rootschat.com/links/01rk0/


Leicestershire Parish Records Browse
https://www.rootschat.com/links/01rk1/


Searched place Shephed, I had to click on the dropdown it gives for Shepshed or browse place for Shepshed as if I just typed Shepshed it gave me a list of 3,833 results :o
https://www.rootschat.com/links/01rk2/


Results for Leicestershire Parish Records Browse, page 1,
https://search.findmypast.co.uk/results/world-images/leicestershire-parish-records-browse?parish=shepshed&_page=1

go to page 2,
https://search.findmypast.co.uk/results/world-images/leicestershire-parish-records-browse?parish=shepshed&_page=2


then Shepshed    Marriages    1791-1807
https://www.rootschat.com/links/01rk4/


then page 98,
https://www.rootschat.com/links/01rk5/


I hope this helps  :)

Regards,
Daisy
