Title: George Gibson married Jane Manning in Lowestoft 07/10/1795.
Post by: miniT on Sunday 15 September 19 18:11 BST (UK)
Can anyone help with a look up of a parish record.  A long time ago someone from this site looked up the marriage of George Gibson to Jane Manning in Lowestoft 07/10/1795.  I am trying to find more information on George Gibson and wonder if there would be names of witnesses to the marriage, or information as to where he came from. Thank you.

Some years ago someone from this website helped me to find information on George Gibson who married Jane Manning in Lowestoft 07/10/1795.  Could anyone tell me if there would be more information on George Gibson i.e. where he came from, or if there were any witnesses to the marriage that might give me some hints as to where to look next.  Thank you.

They were both of the parish.  The witnesses appear to be Jno Hawson? M.B. R.N.L? H and Ann Simpson.

Whether they were relatives or not is anyone's guess.
