Look up request:Elizabeth Featherstonehaugh Leigh
« on: Wednesday 24 January 18 12:37 GMT (UK) »
I have found the transcript for Elizabeth Featherstonehaugh Leigh's marriage to Jonathan Steed Puddicombe, spelt Puddecombe (8 Jan 1814 Plymouth Charles the Martyr) but need to get her father's name and occupation, as (hopefully) given on the parish record. Despite other facsimile records being on-line- this is missing. Can anyone help with a look up please?

Parental info will not appear on a marriage of that era.

Oh-that's a pity. I though the pro-forma recording format started around 1812 and possibly might have given some more clues.  At least I can stop looking!

Her father was Philip Leigh, born 1753 Dartmouth (his father Philip Leigh, his mother Elizabeth Featherstonehaugh)
Her mother was Elizabeth Dunsterville  (1756–) daughter of Elias Dunsterville, a ships blockmaker in Plymouth.
They married  in 1776 at St Andrew's, Plymouth, Devon, England
by licence.
Both father and son Philip Leigh were mariners, with interest and property in the Newfoundland / Dartmouth fishing and trading enterprises.

Many thanks for responding. It is some years now since I first enquired about Elizabeth Featherstonhaugh Leigh and I have followed this family all around the world, to Portugal, Channel Islands, Australia and Newfoundland, through a divorce, bankruptcy and other intriguing twists and turns. Always interesting but research often frustrating! Rootschat was very helpful in those early days. Thank you again.
