Dear List, I know this is not a "SURREY" subject but on looking for a marriage entry in the St Marylebone Parish Church register for 15th January 1888 I expected to see my grandparents' entry, however, it's not there. The pages are consecutively numbered and none appear to be missing. I have a copy of their marriage certificate from the St Marylebone Register Office with clearly written dates etc. Is there an explanation why a civil copy exists and not a parish one? George Rainham, Kent.

Hi George Are you sure that they were not married in the Register Office itself or maybe one of the other Churches in the parish? If they were married in the Register Office then there would be no Parish entry - the certificate that you have should have the register number on it - does this tie in with the on-line register Debbie George Pickering wrote: > Dear List, > > I know this is not a "SURREY" subject but on looking for a marriage entry in the St Marylebone Parish Church register for 15th January 1888 I expected to see my grandparents' entry, however, it's not there. > > The pages are consecutively numbered and none appear to be missing. > > I have a copy of their marriage certificate from the St Marylebone Register Office with clearly written dates etc. > > Is there an explanation why a civil copy exists and not a parish one? > > George > Rainham, Kent. > > > *************************************** > Send your List messages using **PLAIN TEXT** and always **TRIM AWAY** superfluous old messages in replies. > > List Admin can be contacted at: Eng-Surrey-admin@rootsweb.com. > > > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to ENG-SURREY-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message > >

George Does the certificate say that they were married in church?

Philip. Yes it does, extract as follows; 1888. Marriage solemnized at "the Parish Church, Parish of St. Marylebone in the County of Middlesex". 15th January 1888 between Herbert PICKERING and Hannah Elizabeth WOOLLEY Signed by G E Thomas, Curate. I cannot understand why the entry is not in the parish records.
