Earsdon marriage 1797 lookup

Oh yes--a nightmare.  Seemed the births after 1812 had a bit of information if I am thinking of the correct parish--alot of info crammed into a small space with tiny writing but seemed to include the parent marriage place like in Scottish records.

You are on the right parish, Janis.

It seems that when standard records were introduced in 1813 the vicar of Earsdon was not impressed - he continued to write all the information he was used to doing, straight across the columns.

Very informative - if you can read them!

I think the next time I am in England I am going to print off all those pages and inspect them with a magnifying glass at my leisure--but do my copying at Tyne and Wear.  It is not a hassle there.

I think we need more information to procede on this thread.

This marriage is on IGI as an extracted record so I'm still wondering whether it has to do with the 'second book' I mentioned before.

I'm going to take a look on Wednesday anyway - just out of curiosity.

I looked at Earsdon marriages but there definitely isn’t one for this couple.

The banns were called on 13th, 20th and 27th August so perhaps the transcriber picked up this last date as being the marriage date.

So either they married in a different parish (and why would they?) or they didn’t marry at all at that time.

Thank you everyone for your help.

We want to know if they had any children from 1897-1812.  Sometimes those baptisms gave information that could be useful.
