N N C
« on: Tuesday 29 October 24 17:10 GMT (UK) »
I've down-loaded a marriage record from Scotland's People. Against "residence" for both parties are the letters "N N C". Can anyone tell me what these mean, please?

Hello

Some context to aid suggestions might help identify the abbreviation.

Where about in Scotland did the marriage take place, and in what time period?

What were the occupations listed for the bride and groom (and their respective fathers?)

Best wishes

Groom is N.N.C.P.
Bride is S.P. (= Same Parish)

For N.N.C.P., how about New North Church Parish ?

That's great - thank you all very much.

Is there any point in leaving this topic open, or shall I mark it 'complete'?
