I've been told that my 2xgreat grandparents William Russell (a shoemaker) and Agnes Gilchrist Wilson were married at Lamberton Toll. One suggested date is 10th March 1849. I wonder if anyone would be kind enough to look it up for me since I don't have access to those records? As far as I know Agnes was born in Berwick Upon Tweed but William only gives Scotland as his birthplace in the censuses.

The marriage was announced in the paper on the 10th, they married the 3 Mar 1849, no other information in my source "Irregular Marriages Recorded in the Berwick Advertiser and Other Border papers 1808-1864" other than he was a shoemaker and both of this town.

Hi Janis
Thanks a lot, that's very helpful. One other thing...does it give Agnes Gilchrist Wilson's full name in the source or does it simply give her name as Agnes Wilson? I ask as some records show her full name and others not.
Thanks again I very much appreciate your help.

Sorry to encroach in this posting but I would like to ask Janis if the above source is on a microfiche and is it available.

I don't know if it is in microfilm, mine is in booklet form, you can purchase the book at NDFHS, Woodhorn had volume 2 but not vol 1.
