Market Overton marriage?
« on: Friday 29 December 23 15:39 GMT (UK) »
Hi there!

I'm looking for the marriage of John Garfit/Garfoot, possibly in Market Overton or Cottesmore, probably prior to 1756, and definitely no later than 1761. 
He baptises several children along with his wife Mary in Market Overton from 1761 to 1768, and possibly (assuming it's the same family) one in Cottesmore in 1756, but I can't spot a marriage.

Thanks in advance,

Louise

Just a small point on the marriage, John Garford was from Market Overton, and Mary of Ryhall.

The witnesses were Thomas Goulding and John Philpot.

Banns read on 23rd November, 30th November and 7th December. Thomas Harrison was the vicar.

Thank you so much!! 

Not sure why my search at 'FindmyPast' was unsuccessful, clearly I wasn't diligent enough!

I so appreciate the RootsChat community - and wish you a very Happy New Year!
