Hi Everyone, I've just received a marriage certificate for Samuel John and Martha Phillips at Bethel Baptist Chapel, Monachlogduu, PEM, dated 1 November 1852, and it seems that this was a double wedding. The part of the certificate which requires the marks/signatures of the bride and groom, states that the marriage was solemnised between 4 people: Samuel John, Lewis Evans, Jane Butler and Martha Phillips. I know nothing about the extra couple - Lewis Evans and Jane Butler. As far as I know they weren't relatives. I'm intrigued. Was it common to have double weddings in Baptist chapels? Would this have been because it was cheaper? I would be grateful if anyone could shed some light on the subject. Thanks very much Moni
