They married after banns and the church was St John's Bedminster. They were both of the parish. There's no other information available at that time, such as occupations or father's name. The BAFHS CD doesn't give witness names. You could contact the Somerset & Dorset FHS to see if they'll let you have the names of the witnesses and whether all or any parties signed. -- Charani (UK) OPC for Walton, Greinton and Clutton, SOM Asst OPC for Ashcott and Shapwick, SOM http://wsom-opc.org.uk http://www.savethegurkhas.co.uk/

There weren't marriage certificates in 1783. Copies of the marriage entry can be obtained from the parish registers which, in this case, are at Bristol Record Office for a fee. Certificates didn't start until 1 July 1837. Typically, a 1783 marriage would only give the date of the marriage, name of the bride and groom, their condition, whether they were of the parish or the name of the parish if they weren't, plus witnesses. There'd be no fathers names nor occupations. There would also be the signatures or marks of the parties and witnesses (not always legible). -- Charani (UK) OPC for Walton, Greinton and Clutton, SOM Asst OPC for Ashcott and Shapwick, SOM http://wsom-opc.org.uk http://www.savethegurkhas.co.uk/

There won't be a certificate because the marriage took place before civil registration. I answered the same query on the Bristol_and_Somerset list, yesterday. This is my reply: ---------------------------------------------- The marriage took place, by banns, at the church of St. John the Baptist, Bedminster. Both bride and groom were of the parish. Information about this church is here: http://www.churchcrawler.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/bedmjb.htm ---------------------------------------------- This marriage is included in the CD of Bristol Diocese Marriage Registers Vol 9 Groom & Bride Indexes & Transcripts 1754-1812 produced by Bristol & Avon Family History Society. www.bafhs.org.uk -- Josephine Jeremiah www.ianandjo.dsl.pipex.com

Jenny, to get any further details you need to purchase the certificate that will give you all sorts of extra information that is not held in the indexes, some certificates though just say 'Parish Church' without giving the actual name.

Hi Does anyone know where St Mary's Chapel is located in Walcot (Bath)? Is it still standing? Many thanks Doug

HI Jenny I had a look for on line record transcriptions for Bedminster, and it appears that none are available. On the Free Reg status page it says Bedminster records are held by the Bristol Records Office. The Bristol Records Office has a research service but it's temporarily shut down. Their website may have some clues about where to go for research help. Hope this helps Mike

Hi Diana, I'm forwarding Derek's message and if you are using Outlook Express or similar, open this message and look at "View/Encoding" and look at the list against it and you will see that it is in Unicode. Also on my computer in the task bar along the bottom of the screen it also says "Unicode". Opening this message will not affect anything, but I think he may have his system set to send out all messages in Unicode. Having said that, I've checked his other messages and they are OK, so I don't know why this one was like this. It was Unicode that caused so much trouble with the PPPs at the end of last year.

So I'm also copying this to those coordinators in case the parishes you mention need transcribing. I also see that you have volunteered for the UNK (Unknown) syndicate. This is not a problem, but I will need to transfer you to whichever county you end up working for, at which time will you please let me know which this is.

Hi Folks I am still trying to clear up a longstanding mystery, I have Elizabeth STARK first marriage to John HILL 4th June 1865, at first thought to be at Corfe nr Taunton, but the marriage certificate shows Taunton Register office, second marriage to Thomas WILLIAMS 23 April 1870 at Taunton Register Office. In both cases her Father is given as James Stark (deceased) Labourer. In 1865 her age was given as 22 years and in 1870 as 24 years, so maths was not a strong subject!! In the 1871 census she is with Thomas and has a daughter Mary Jane aged 4, I have checked this as being Mary Jane HILL b June qtr 1866 In subsequent census returns she is shown as originating from Taunton in 1871, 1881, 1901 from Bristol in 1891 and Bedminster in 191. In most returns her age would put her a being born about 1846-7 except the 1911 which puts her as being born 1845. I have tried the usual freebmd and Ancestry searches to no avail and wonder again if anyone has this one in their tree. Regards Patrick Williams
