Title: Sunderland Marriage Lookup
Post by: Peter Walker on Sunday 13 March 05 22:10 GMT (UK)

The Free BMD site has a marriage for my ancestor George Henry Walker in Sunderland in the September quarter 1863 with the reference 10A 445. However, there is no corresponding entry for his bride. Is anyone able to look up the registers to see who his bride was? I think he may have been married at Monkwearmouth

Try this site:

It contains all the Durham marriages.

I've found a George Henry Walker marrying Ann Armstrong on 3 August 1863 in Bishopwearmouth. George's father is listed as Thomas Walker if that helps you to link them at all. Ann's father is listed as John Armstrong

John,

Thanks for the suggestion. However, I tried the Durham site but it failed to find an entry.
