Title: Marriage in Newcastle
Post by: SBib on Wednesday 20 July 11 11:37 BST (UK)

The IGI shows George Bibby married Maria Atkinson at Newcastle St John in Jan 1807.
I'm looking for the marriage details.

The marriage can be found in the Bishops Transcripts for St John's Newcastle on page 137 of the section 1803 - 1821:

George Bibby and Maria Atkinson, 11 January 1807

No further information is included

(If you have not used these before I am sure someone will post a message to tell you how to access them.)

Both witnesses were serial witnesses--William Burn and Henry Cockburn

Do you have any children born in the period from the marriage to 1812?  That will give you the most information--where the parents were born and in some parishes the mother's fathers name.

This information is from the Herbert Maxwell Wood transcript

Thanks Janis. No children or siblings unfortunately.
