I'm looking for the marriage of Marianne (surname unknown) to John King Garrod around 1840. Both born in Beccles (Marianne in 1821 - from census & John in 1817).
I have no surname for Marianne (aka Mary Ann), and thus no record of her baptism or parents. She died in March 1861, and John subsequently married Sarah Ann of Norwich (another marriage I have yet to locate).
John & Marianne had 8 children:
Marianne (1841-1923)
William (1842-1889)
Ellen (1845-)
Harriet (1847-)
Georgianne (1850-)
John (1854-)
Anne/a (1856-)
Thomas (1858-)
Many thanks,
Anne

Hi
I can't find a marriage record for John and Marianne on the St Michaels Beccles register.
I can give you the dates of baptism and some birth dates for their children if you haven't got exact details
Regards
Jay

Hi Jay,
That information would be useful as it would confirm the family details I've located so far. You haven't seen a Marianne baptised around 1821 that might fit as well, by any chance?
Thanks,
Anne

Hi again
FreeBMD has the record for John's marriage
Sep Qtr 1840
Wangford district- this covers Beccles
Volume 13
Page 699
Marianne Plowman
John King Garrod
Unfortunately I cannot find any baptism of a Marianne Plowman at St Michael's Beccles.

PS I will post the childrens baptism's on a separate reply.

Great. I was beginning to suspect Plowman as a possibility as the name is used in the middle of some of the childrens' names, but it could have been the grandmother's.

I don't know why there are two John Plowman baptisms. I thought maybe the first child died and they named another with the same name, but can't find a death for the first. Also the first baptism entry for JP has Marianne spelt Marian which might not be too worrying, but I dont know what Town Office means for John Snr's occupation.
Hope some of this helps.

By the way, I have some Garrod's in my extended family tree, but mine are from Shotley and went to Ipswich.

This all helps and will keep me occupied for the rest of the morning quite happily.
I found John & Marianne's marriage online after your post - for some reason it didn't seem to appear on the searches I'd done up to now.
I'm not acutally related to any of them (I'm Scots), but I'm researching the family background to a Rev. C.W. Shickle form Norwich who married John & Marianne's eldest daughter and ended up living in Bath.
Many thanks for all your help.

Thanks for the details about the Garrods. John's marriage is really interesting as the Shickle I'm chasing was the son of a Charles William Shickle and Sarah Ann Mandall. I haven't yet pinned down the dates of their deaths, but this gives me a connection between the Shickles and Garrods - always a hard thing to find or prove.
I forsee an interesting afternoon ahead.
Many thanks,
Anne

Hi Welsh Lady
It seems the Garrod family have lots of sadness in their life. My line has a Lydia who gave birth to a daughter named Lydia after her, and Lydia must have had Post Natal Depression as she drowned herself and the baby two months after she gave birth.
So sad.
