Marriage in Terrington St Clements

[charley]

Please can you help me to find a marriage in early1840 for
Thomas Banham Bodger to Ann Liley Porter 
After Ann died he married another lady with the same surname and maybe they were sisters.  Hopefully her father's name will solve this for me.
Many thanks, Charley

Have you bought the marriage certificate which should have the father's name? Wisbech is in Cambridgeshire, did you mean the district Wisbech though? If you did, have you located which village they lived in in the 1841 census if you think they are in Norfolk?

Thomas and Ann lived in Walsoken in 1941 and all other records have been Norfolk rather than Cambridge.  She was only married to Thomas for 2 years before she died.  If the two Porter girls were sisters the father of the second bride, Mary, was John Porter. Mary was married in Terrington st Clements in 1942.   I was trying to avoid buying Ann's certificate if I can as I have bought an enormous number in the past and this is just to satisfy my curiosity.  Mary is my family not Ann
Thanks

So it is possible this marriage was in Terrington St Clements.
So what you are really wanting is to see if anyone has access to PR's for Terrington St Clements.
You might like to change the title in order for anyone who has, to spot this thread

Sorry, don't have access to the parish records, but thought you might want to consider other parishes. The marriage you have to Mary is on free reg, so maybe the records for Terrington have been transcribed. It says there that she is from Walton and he is living at Walsoken, so those are alternative villages. It might be also useful if you could give the age on the 1841 census for anyone trying to find Ann Liley as the age of her sister at marriage according to familysearch is 37 and his 22! Unfortunately none of these parishes are part of the familysearch Norfolk registers online

I find the map on familysearch useful to locate neighbouring parishes just in case some of the others have registers online. Can't paste a link as it won't allow me to. kaysii

Hello and thanks,
The marriage of Thomas Banham to Ann Liley Porter on Free BMD says it was in Wisbeach, Mar Qtr 1840. 
The 1841 census says they lived in Walsoken and they were both 25 years old - rounded to the nearest 5. Ann died in Mar 1842 leaving an 18 month old and a new baby.  Thomas re-married in April 1842.   Early in 1843 he and Mary had another baby - my ancestor. 
In 1851 Thomas was 38 and Mary his new wife 48.  I do have the Mary's marriage cert. 
I have used family search but cannot find a map yet.  If you have any other ideas on how to find Ann Liley Porter's father's name apart from the obvious I would welcome your help
With thanks, Charley
