Marriages for the 1860s appear to be the Cinderella of FreeBMD, with none of the 1861-63 pages allocated at all. I don't understand why so much effort is going into the transcribing of pages from the C20 when the latter are so much easier to look up (more entries per page) and read (printed rather than handwritten). I have an interest to declare - a missing marriage from these years, possibly involving some very inventive surname spelling. I've uploaded the results of my GRO Index searches from 1854 to 1863, involving some 400 entries, but that's the merest drop in the ocean, and the syndicate I'm transcribing for mainly covers births and deaths. Please someone, start a syndicate for 1861-63 marriages. I'll be your first volunteer! (And in answer to the inevitable - and reasonable - question: I'm afraid I don't have the time, or probably the expertise, to set up and run a syndicate.) Barry Johnson Monmouthshire
