Hello all, Im looking for marriage details of a Sarah GOBLE b.1809 Funtington. I believe she married a William GOBLE (yes, same surname), but not entirely sure. I have a marriage of 19th September 1836 in Funtington. What I would like to know is - Is William’s name really GOBLE and if so who are his parents. If not, what was Williams surname. Is this the correct date of the marriage for Sarah & William. I have Sarah’s parents as James & Sarah Goble of Funtington. Hoping someone can help. Thank you. Anne

Hello Anne I may be able to help a little. I've looked at transcripts of the Funtington parish registers and also at the original 1813-37 marriage registers on microfiche. William GOBLE did indeed marry Sarah GOBLE in Funtington on 19 Sep 1836. The register states that he was a widower and she was a spinster, that they were both of the parish of Funtington and that they were married after banns. Sarah signed the register whereas William made his mark. The witnesses were Thomas Goble and Eliza Goble. Looking at the transcripts of the baptism registers, a Sarah GOBLE was baptised on 20 Jan 1809 to parents James and Sarah. This couple had various other children baptised in Funtington between 1795 and 1816, including a Thomas and an Eliza, so these may have been the witnesses to William and Sarah's marriage. James GOBLE was a labourer. I can't see the marriage of James and Sarah GOBLE, nor that of William GOBLE to his first wife, so I presume these took place in other parishes. Hope this helps.
