Looking for the marriage of Francis Chaney & Sarah ? Francis was born in 1775 in Rochester,Kent and baptised at St Margaret's. I have done a search on CityArk without success. Francis Chaney is my 5th Great Grandfather.
Hope somebody may be able to help.

Hi Michelle
Which parishes did you check on cityark whilst looking for the marriage?
Have you seen that another Rootschatter has Francis in his tree - with mention of him marrying Sarah NORRIS? Perhaps he has some details of marriage :-\

Hi Michelle
I've got the Medway Marriage Index. It only goes up to 1812, & doesn't give much detail, but there's four marriages about the right timescale.
At least it gives you another parish to check.
Chaney + MELSON Oct 1793 Rochester St Margaret
Chaney + NOVIS Nov 1795 Rochester St Margaret
Chaney + WEBSTER Jul 1808 Rochester St Nicholas
Chaney + SCALES Dec 1811 Gillingham

Thank you both very much for the information. I have since found several other records. I am now looking for marriages for Jacob Chaney,Edmond John Chaney,William Thomas Chaney.All were born in St Nicholas,Rochester.

The writing on the marriage entry is not easy to read but I think Sarah's maiden name was NORRIS not NOVIS.

Assuming that these people did marry, what kind of dates would these marriages have taken place?

Chaney+AITKEN Oct 1787 Rochester St. Nicholas
Chaney+ADAMS Oct 1790 Rochester St. Margaret
Chaney+WHITTHORN Mar 1791 Rochester St. Margaret
These two could be mispellings of Chaney:

CHANY+WEBB Apr 1783 Rochester St. Nicholas
By GROOM:
Chaney+SPARROW Oct 1726 Rochester St. Margaret

Plus the four mentioned in message 3
There's not much detail, but it might help :)
