Help reading Gt Sampford parish register online

[TaraK]

Could anyone help me decipher what an entry in the Great Sampford (Essex, UK) parish register says please?

The link is here - http://seax.essexcc.gov.uk/Images.Net/?ID=964950&intThisRecordsOffSet=&intOffSet=

The entry I am interested in is in 1733; the marriage of Thomas Livermore to Mary. I can't work out which parish he is from or her surname.

Thanks!

Looks like Mary Corll to me.
I think the of is repeated on the other line, 'of the parish of of ?

I read the surname as Coell - the letters appear to be very similar to those in the surname Cornell, which is the first marriage of 1733.  Perhaps Coell may have been Cowell but pronounced C-oh-le rather than Cow-ell.  Or an alternative spelling of Cole?

I think the parish may be Hempsted/Hempstead?  The same parish seems to be on the last line of the page, too, relating to Thomas Hills' wife.  I think the word "of" has been written twice by accident in the Livermore marriage.

Edit - have just noticed the way he has written "d" at the end of "Maried 1733".  It looks almost the same as the last letter of what I think is Hempsted/Hempstead.  However, the other titles seem to say something like "Nuptia" or "Nuptiae", so perhaps that last title is the same word and doesn't end in a "d" after all.  Unless it says "Nuptid" but is that a real word?

Thank you both. Hempstead would make perfect sense, as that's where my ancestor was born and I believe these are his parents. I didn't see that at all when I looked at it, but can now you've pointed it out.

There are some 'Cole' children born in Gt Sampford around 1710, so these could be Mary's relatives. I'll do some more digging.

Thank you!

Glad to have helped.  How wonderful to have got back this far!  Hope these do turn out to be your ancestor's parents, good luck!
