Barrowden marriage help please
« on: Thursday 14 August 25 21:41 BST (UK) »
I've just spent nearly an hour trawling images on FindMyPast and Ancestry trying to find a marriage. I've got the details but looking for the actual image number on either Ancestry or FindMyPast to view.

Henry Stevenson and Joanna Elsham had banns called at Barrowden and at Hallaton, Leicestershire on the 8th/15th and 22nd of June 1755. I can find both images of the banns but cant see the actual marriage entry which Familysearch is quoting as 29th June 1755. Can somebody tell me the image number please as my eyes are going goggly. Not sure where they're getting 29th June from!

Any help greatly appreciated.

Sorry having trouble posting the link.  The banns entry on FindMyPast lists the dates as 8th, 15th 22nd June 1755
It then states
The above written Henry Stevenson and Joanah  Elsham were married in this church the 29th June 1755 by me.

Ancestry only appears to have Bishops transcript of the marriage.

....

If you search for in the category Parish marriages on FindMyPast with just the following
First name - Joanna (Ticked for name variants)
Last name - Elsham
Year -1755
you should get 3 results

The first is Ann Elsham which is not your person but your marriage does appear above that entry on that page

The next
Elsham,  Joana. - 1755 - Leicestershire Marriages And Banns - Hallaton, Leicestershire, England
which is the banns at Hallaton

Finally
Elsham, Joanah - 1755 - Rutland Banns - Barrowden, Rutland, England which is the same page as the Ann Elsham one.   This entry is the one that is the banns and the marriage - it is signed by the clergy and signed/marked by the bride and groom
