Has anyone come across a marriage between a William Hammett and Honour of Bere Regis, probably pre 1800?

Hi Rhodie,

Have you looked for them on www.dorset-opc.com?   A variety of Dorset information there.

have emailed the parish clerks as they don't have any parish records available on that site.

Another suggestion:

Somerset & Dorset Family History Society

http://www.sdfhs.org/

has a marriage index for Dorset - details at

http://www.sdfhs.org/Dormarr.htm

But will probably cost you £2.

Best of luck

Hi again Rodie

Don't know if you're still looking, a month ago now!

For those with ancestors from Bere Regis try this site and go to Historical Records there.

Woops!! More hurry less speed!

Should have been - Click on Village History on the right then scroll down to items including Muster Rolls, Hearth Tax Returns and BMDs.

Obviously doing their own OPC.

An excellent site - well worth a visit even if you've no ancestors there.
