Hi,
I thought Bristol was Somerset, but it appears only on the Gloucestershire board ??? Anyway, if SKS is going to the records office could they look up the following marriage please?
Isaac BREACH married Elizabeth Sarah WHITE in 1855.
2nd quarter vol 5c Pg 1216 registered at Bedminster.
Sorry I cannot narrow it down any further to a church for you.

part of Bristol was Gloucestershire and part was Somerset...Bedminster was in Somerset (is now in south Bristol) :)

Thanks
Any idea how I move this request to the Somerset board??

I think you'd need to ask a moderator to do that for you :)

I think it is best if you post your request again on the Somerset board - because it is likely that the records are in Taunton (I think - correct me if I am wrong!)
Post it as a look-up and hopefully someone will be able to help you check where the records are held - sorry not to be more informative myself.
kind regards, Arranroots ;)

Both living Langton St., marriage by Banns, Both Isaac & Elizabeth signed their names.

Hope this helps

Hi Nashua,
Thank you ever so much. After my posting I realised it would be a nigh on impossible task as I could not give any Church or Parish name. I cannot beleive you took the time and trouble to get this information for me. I am ever so grateful.
Once again,
Thank you,
Joan :)

You're welcome Joan. I got lucky and it was the first church I tried so only took a few minutes.
