Title: Marriage address
Post by: whimsical on Friday 19 February 21 12:04 GMT (UK)
I have a marriage that took place in the Emmanuel Church Peckham in 1874.  It doesn't give me an address for either of the participants.  It just says Emmanual. Is this unusual?  It makes the research come to a halt .

It is not unusual for just the parish to be given as an address.  Maybe we can help with your halt in research

Its not unusual for marriages of that era to use the parish  as the address.

Street addresses start appearing regularly maybe 30years after your dates.


If you provide all details, then someone on here might turn something up.
ALL names, occupations, parents and witnesses.

I don't see how only having the parish name as their addresses on a marriage certificate necessarily brings your research to a halt.

If you can locate them in the 1871 census, this will give their addresses three years prior to their marriage. Of course this may or may not be the same as when they married.

For example, if your bride was living with her family in the 1871 census, then in 1881 her family were still at the same address, it is probably fair to assume that is where she was living in 1874 when she married, even if she claimed to be living in another parish.  :)

Sometimes the bride and groom gave the same address at marriage (whether of not they were living together) to avoid paying banns in two parishes.

Many thanks for bothering to answer me. I will continue to try and get this sorted.

I think this may link to a query along the same lines that Whimsical asked in 2012.

On a later census entry, Frederick's place of birth is Cheltenham

That was the only one I could find same on Gloucestershire BMD

Not that this helps he’s Frederick William Arnold Golding on his 1874 marriage, 2 children’s baptisms 1890 and 4 children’s marriages and his 1905 death

Has Frederick been found on 1871 census?

That is a great bit of research.  Thank you.  I will get on it straight away.  I will report back. Thank you again.

Post by: whimsical on Sunday 21 February 21 11:13 GMT (UK)
I have never found Frederick in the 1871 census.  Could he have been on the forces; in prison, or out of the country.  As he was a compositor I would think that round about 1871 he may have been serving an apprenticeship away from home.  But he still should be able to be found.  I have regained my enthusiasm now that I have some more worthwhile stuff to follow up. Many thanks.
