St Andrew by the Wardrobe
« on: Saturday 21 January 23 09:59 GMT (UK) »
I am interested in a marriage from 1643/4 at St Andrew by the Wardrobe.

I can find a record on FamilySearch, and with an image on Ancestry which shows me the text from the register and shows a marriage between 'Adryan Scobe' and 'Marie Kempe' on 6 Jan 1643.  The image shows that this record is a handwritten transcription (all the entries clearly written in the same hand, none of the variation that would be seen in an original register).

I would like to know if there is any chance that the original register might be available - I want to see whether this could be a mistranscribed entry for a marriage I am looking for between Adrian Scrope and Mary Temple.

The LMA index suggests their data is what has been imaged for Ancestry.  Is there anywhere else I might find the original?

What you are looking at on Ancestry is the original register. There is no other for this parish. At this date it is normal for a marriage entry to be all in one hand - there are no signatures.
