Mrs S died 1856 at the age of 94 = bc 1762

I live this word from today's entry:

"Carried on the same game as heretofore."

Nathaniel doesn't often us these 'antiquated' words.

Ruskie ...I LIVE it too! 

ooops. sorry 'bout that. I'm a bit tired tonight .... 

Of course I mean love rather than live.....

Wow! This is all looking very promising for Mrs S.

The old "L" and "S" mistranscription?

possible marriage

Mary BUNYON = Samuel LANIGEAR
23 FEB 1794   Spitalfields Christ Church, Stepney

IGI Extracted

Brilliant!

Banns of marriage were published at Christ Church, Spitalfields between Samuel SANIGEAR, bachelor, and Mary BUNYAN, spinster, both OTP, on 26 Jan and 2 and 9 Feb 1794, with the marriage taking place on 23 Feb 1794.

Each signed the register in a nice clear hand, with Samuel producing lovely capital S's for both Samuel and Sanigear (so IGI def. a mistranscription).
