Hi Ive just received a cert showing Sarah McMullen a 41 year old widows marriage. Her dad is named as Henry McMullen. This was in 1843 and she was Irish. I do have a scottish cert where a widow gave her maiden name and signed her maiden name with no mention of her married name. Do you think Sarah used - and also signed- her maiden name or had she maybe been a McMullen who married a McMullen. The first marriage will more than likely have been somewhere in Ireland so i cant go down that route. Thanks carol

I have recently updated my website with a number of will etc transcripts from County Durham. Although these mainly focus on the names Porritt & Prissick, all the personal names mentioned are indexed, and may be of use to someone... follow the probate transcripts link from http://mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/dhking/index.html Dave
