We  went to Stockton Library yesterday for teh first time, to look up someone on my weife's side. Have booked a reader for next week, s will look at the entry suggested.

Are you related to the Bulmer family. I have lots of info on the Sunderland/Monkwearmouth Bulmes and other parts of Co Durham.

Thanks

Durham / Richard Bulmer c1761
« on: Saturday 14 July 07 08:14 BST (UK)  »
I have hit a brick wall. My great x3 grandfather, Richard Bulmer born c1761, married Eleanor Johnson in Monkwearmouth (Sunderland) in 1787. Buried in St Peter's churchyard, Monkwearmouth, 19 July 1806 - the day on which his 4 youngest children were baptised in the same church.

Way back then there were only 3 small villages at the mouth of the River Wear, namely, Monkwearmouth; (Old) Sunderland; Bishopwearmouth.

I cannot find a birth/baptism entry for Richard Bulmer in any of these parish churches.

Has anyone come across someone fitting this elusive man's description elsewhere in County Durham or North Yorkshire - i.e. where the majority o fBulmers were located at that time.

Hope someone can help.
Richard

You will not find this kind of information on marriage certificates until after Sept 1837. All you will get are the names of thegroom & bride and the date they married. Also whether they were married by banns or licence.

I've looked this up because I have all three Genuki links in my favourites.
Answer:
They married at St Peter's Monkwearmouth, established 674AD. Most of my ancestors were baptised there.

Go on Genuki. Open relevant years for marriages at the only churches in the area, namely, Sunderland, Monkwearmouth & Bishopwearmouth. Type one of the surnames in the 'find' widow. You will find this marriage in one of these churches.

You could alsotry Venerable Bede, All Saints and St Cuthbert's - all in Monkwearmouth.
