Hi Pennie

Finally got around to looking at the marriage register and it reads exactly he same as the Harleian Transcription above

1st August 1748 John Barker and Mary Wastie of St Pancras

No witnesses.

Just to add though, the entries are all in the same format

Date, Groom and Bride of a place (Aldgate, or Kensington, or Covent Garden, even Sunbury Middx following the entry you were asking after)

Hi

Good to know that the entries are all in that format as it means the Harleian Society records are a reasonable alternative. However, I've heard an error rate of upto 5% in them is typical, so best not rely on them overly.

Many thanks, Dawn, for double-checking that one for me - it's appreciated.
