Hi Scottygirl,

Just re-visiting old posts and read yours. I was wondering if you ever gained a transcription of the Intention to Marry Notice you were interested in?

And might this be your Thomas LAWS in Blenheim?

There are other less likely references to men of that name on Archway: http://archway.archives.govt.nz/

Hello, yes I did get the intention to marriage - seems his bride was underage and lied to say she was older!!  The Thomas Laws you mentioned could be my Thomas Law - perhaps they got the name wrong?  He did get into debt so it is likely there would documents like this.

Thanks
