Thanks Geoff Much appreciated, will try some of those options. I agree with your sentiments regarding your tea!

Also, many of the Wood transcripts were published on fiche by Northfiche some time ago. They used to be available (by post!) from Woodhorn, and perhaps still are. However, while I was strictly speaking correct in saying that the Wood transctripts cover the period you mention, I should qualify that by saying that, according to the National Index of Parish Registers, those for Stamfordham survive only from 1662-1695 and from 1722 onwards. That might affect your chances of finding the marriage you seek. However, you could be helped by the availability of Boyd's Marriage Index (information also on the old microfiche IGI and no doubt also nowadays on the LDS web site). If you still can't trace it and still think it could have been at Stamfordham 1696-1721 then you could always look at the microfiche index to Durham Diocese Marriage Bonds, just in case it was one of the 10% (max!) or so that were by Licence. Sorry for the brevity of my last message - caused by my tea being in danger of getting cold, and we can't have that!

Many thanks for any help Mike Fairless ..

Hello Michael I checked the transcripts for the Stamfordham registers (Microfilm M1123) at Woodhorn this morning and there are no entries for a John Fawcus/Falcus etc baptism in the PR John Fawcus/etc to an Ann marriage in the PR There are plenty with this surname BUT none of the ones you seek.
