Thanks so much Rosie I've been stuck finding records on this Aamer or Amer lady do you think this name is the same as the Wiltshire Amor surname? as I'm trying to trace Elizabeth's line

They would probably sound the same with a Wiltshire accent  ;D

The marriage image is on Ancestry in 1742 at St James Trowbridge. There is no information other than their names. 

Ancestry have images for several Wiltshire parishes
