Hi Listers Can any one help solve this matter please? Would like to resolve the issue of where Robert Beavis and Elizabeth Mackenzie were married - at Windsor, but the marriage cert says Scots Church, however there was no Scots Church at that time. It was built later. They were either married at the Anglican church St Matthew's, or possibly in the Ebenezer Church, which was Presbyterian. Cheers Joanne
Hi Joanne, On the Early Pioneer index it states... St Matthews Presbyterian Church Windsor However I believe the Presbyterian religion is Scottish. So perhaps in short, it was just referred to as the 'Scots Church'. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Church_of_Scotland Robert - Beavis is spelt incorrectly on the index 'BAVEIS' Kind regards, Sherrie. -- http://www.silkweb.com.au/ On Mon, 02 Nov 2009 10:38:06 +1100, Joanne Flack <bell.bird@bigpond.com> wrote: > Hi Listers > > Can any one help solve this matter please? > > Would like to resolve the issue of where Robert Beavis and Elizabeth > Mackenzie were married - at Windsor, but the marriage cert says Scots > Church, however there was no Scots Church at that time.

Hi Sherrie Thanks for your help and suggestions. As Elizabeth's family were Scots (Grono) it may have been at Ebenezer. The witness, Thomas Ardnell, son of an assistant surgeon on the 1st Fleet, was a member of the church at Ebenezer.
