« on: Monday 08 April 24 07:42 BST (UK) »

Can someone kindly explain this marriage record please?

"Margarett Davis F marriage date 25 Dec 1728 Place Fleet Prison and rules of the Fleet, London
Isaac Cole FHL film no 0813816 RG7 V. 91-94"

I have been looking for a marriage regarding my Great Grandfatherx6 Isaac Coole who married Margaret Davis about that time, Isaac came from the Bristol area so what was he doing in London so have doubts , but I have never come across this sort of marriage before so interested.
