Hi I'm new to the list and this is my 3rd attempt in sending a message so maybe 3 times is the charm. I am researching the Stephens/Fauckes family of Bristol. I recently received my gr grandparents marriage certificate - Thomas John Stephens m. Martha Fauckes in 1873. It shows they married in a Church listed as 'S. Simon'. Would this be St. Simon? When I typed St. Simon into a modern day map program of Bristol it came up with a church building off of Newgate which would have been about 20 minutes from where they were living at the time of the marriage and only a few minutes from where my gr grandfather was born on Horsefair. However upon closer inspection - at street level - I see that this is just the shell of a church. Would this have been St. Simon's church. Perhaps someone living in Bristol could enlighten me? Please and thanks. Margo Ontario Canada
