Hi :)

There are copies in Whitehaven

Can't find a match anywhere on free bmd.

Could it be a second marriage or in Scotland - including Gretna?

The nearest I can find is John Swalwell with possibility Mary Ann Douglas in South Shields

24 204 June 1850.

Unless one was known by another name?

Best wishes

Emms :)

This is reviving a very old post from 2004 so it is possible Audrey already has the answer and probably best not to do too much research until she replies.
