Word in Marriage Register 1709
« on: Monday 16 February 26 00:42 GMT (UK) »
Hi

I'm finding it difficult to transcribe the word highlighted. The a in the word parish looks like an e and is completely different to the a in Saddleworth, Jane and Gartside.

It looks like '& artifide from Saddleworth' to me.

Thank you

In the first line of this and the record beneath he spells it:  perish

It's just normal spelling variation for the time.

The word of interest is:  certifide

Apparently someone or something has certified Jane's place of residence, settlement or origin.
