I am always VERY cautious about member submissions on the IGI. The current discussion about HUTCHIN(G)S demonstrates the situation. The marriage of Richard to Mary WHITEWARD is a *member submission*. That David cannot find this marriage in the transcribed documents he has would make me inclined to disregard it. My suspicion is that the member read MILLWARD as WHITEWARD. There are also errors on the *extracted entries* on the IGI - some parishes demonstrate accurate transcribing but this cannot be said for all. Some instances, where I have checked an item in the originals, have not produced an original that was difficult to read: "human error" was the only explanation. It happens - as researchers, we have to check originals for peace of mind. But Listers, please, when using the IGI, scroll down and check if an entry is "member submission" or "extracted", and, as Diane pointed out in an earlier post, order the PR film at the local LDS family history centre and check so you don't climb the wrong tree. Jacqui - wishing she too was in Whakatane...!!!!! According to both the Phillimore transcript and my own transcript the marriage was between Rich. Hutchings and Eliz. Millward. There is, of course, no marriage on the same day to a Whiteward. The groom's family also appear in the Snitterfield registers as Hutchins, both before and after 1801. His baptism may be that of Rich. Hutchins, baptised 14 July 1765, parents John and Mary Hutchins (from my own transcript). However, if so this would make him 37 when he married, which is a bit late. My typed-up transcript on my computer doesn't say that he was a widower, but it doesn't say that he was a bachelor, either, nor does it say whether Elizabeth Millward was a spinster or a widow. Next time I am at Warwick Record Office I will check up. It may not be for some time, so if you desperately need to know, you could get the WRO to send you a printout. There's no baptism of Elizabeth Millward in my Snitterfield transcript at any appropriate time (of course, I might have missed it). There's also no marriage of John Hutchins or Hutchings to a Mary at Snitterfield, (nor is there in Phillimore, so I probably didn't miss that one!). People named Millward also appear as Millard (but not in the Snitterfield registers). Many Millwards/Millards were catholics, by the way.
