Hi Lynda, I don't have a paid subsricption to Ancestry...........too expensive for me, but I do use it free at the Library quite often. I shall have to check again for this time period. I know they only have the BMD's that FreeBMD have transcribed so far. And yes I first found James LAWSON 's baptism on www.familysearch.org but there is no marriage on there of his parents. As you live in Market Weighton could you please tell me where would be the closest record office I could get in touch with? Many thanks for your suggestions as I need all the help I can get with this brick wall.

Bridget The records office for Market Weighton would be at Beverley. If you are looking for anything before 1837 you wont find these on FreeBMD nor Ancestry. Records prior to this date will be at Beverley or on the IGI.
