Carol, Thank you so much for the Harris-Bostock marriage look up, very much appreciated, the more so as it gave the result hoped for.

Would be most grateful for a transcript of the marriage of Frank HARRIS to Fanny BOSTOCK which took place on 26th December 1870 at Basford (Notts) St Leodegarius, Keith

Thanks for the exact date, Rosie.  Unfortunately, however, FreeReg does not state the fathers' names and occupations etc.  With a surname as frequent as Harris, which is the one of interest to me, such things are crucial, alas.  So if someone who visits the Nottingham Record Office could spare a few minutes to extract the details of this identified marriage, I would be grateful, Keith.

Hi Dawn,
This is my first posting on the Surrey section.  I saw that there had been 3967 completed look-ups and thought that this was an active site where I could get some help, particularly as I was able to pinpoint exactly what I wanted and where to find it, so that it would take barely ten minutes to obtain.  I am disillusioned and will try other routes.  By the way, this request is not for my own genealogy or even on behalf of anyone specific - it is simply to complete part of a pro bono publico project - so I don't want to spend money on it.

Thank you for the reality check.
Keith

Lynne,
I assumed that the North Tyneside Registrars did not want to publish their code.  However, your post reminded me that it is always worthwhile trying "route number one", so I did and to my surprise, they sent me the whole code, without requiring any obligation of confidentiality.  Hats off to you and here is the code for Anglican churches.  You will see that C-12 is indeed Killingworth St John.  All other references are to Registrar's Books or non-Anglican churches.
C-1   Christ Church   N Shields
C-2   Good Shepherd   Burradon
C-3   Holy Saviours   Tynemouth
C-4   S. Aidan   N Shields
C-5   S. Alban   Earsdon
C-6   S. Augustine   N Shields
C-7   S. Bartholomew   Longbenton
C-8   S. George   Cullercoats
C-9   S. Hilda   Marden
C-10   Percy S. John   Percy Main
