Whilst researching John FISHER of Hayes-park Middx I came across this Boyds Marriage Index marriage on findmypast. In 1674 John FISHER married Mary CHILD at St Matthew Friday Street. This has presented me with an anomaly as St Matthew on Friday Street was burnt down in 1666 during the Great Fire of London. It was apparently not rebuilt until 1682. Can anyone help with where this marriage would have taken place please?. Any further information on the marriage would also be welcome. I appreciate that the church was in the City of London, but it seems probable that the bride and/or groom may have been from outside the City. In particular because Cheapside was a Market. Thank you for any assistance Moira

License for them to be married in the parish church of St Matthew Friday Street London or St Peters the Poor London. Sorry can“t read it all but this gives you the information you require except the parish of Mary which Ancestry has transcribed as Heesse Diane On 8 November 2014 02:19, M Doherty via <middlesex_county_uk@rootsweb.com> wrote: > Whilst researching John FISHER of Hayes-park Middx I came across this > Boyds Marriage Index marriage on findmypast. > > In 1674 John FISHER married Mary CHILD at St Matthew Friday Street. > > This has presented me with an anomaly as St Matthew on Friday Street was > burnt down in 1666 during the Great Fire of London.
