Title: Marriage lookup please: St Martins Birmingham
Post by: softieh on Wednesday 02 June 10 20:27 BST (UK)

Hello all

I would be so grateful if someone could have a look for this marriage record please:

Taken from IGI: John Rolph (should probably be Ralph) married Elizabeth Pride 14 Sep 1789, St Martins, Birmingham

It would be especially useful to know whether Elizabeth was a widow. I am hoping this marriage could be the correct one to break through the brick wall in my friends family history!

Many thanks for your help.

Sophie

Hi Margaret,

Fantastic! Thank you so so much, and please pass on my thanks to your friend who looked up the info for me. This is exactly what I was hoping for as Elizabeth is a widow which fits with my theory.

Thanks again!
Sophie
