<< There were no Presbyterian marriages in England and Wales between 1754 and 1837. Under Lord Hardwicke's Marriage Act of 1754 all marriages had to take place in a Church of England parish church. The only exceptions were if both parties were Quakers or both parties were Jews. These religions could be married in their own places of worship. >> Contributed by Tombi tombi@peck1941.fsnet.co.uk
