Maureen, Thanks - I did receive the free credits before the offer expired and "purchased" the marriage record of James Brunt and Jane Buckly.   Ok - I can contact Cheshire Records and see what they have.  If it's nothing more than this, what do you do then?   Are there any other resources you Warwickers use to further your research back into the early 1700's?  All help is appreciated!   Regards, Jim Andrews ________________________________ From: Maureen Eden <maureen.eden@ntlworld.com> To: 'Jim Andrews' <jmjandrews@ameritech.net>; warwick@rootsweb.com Sent: Sunday, January 13, 2013 12:39 PM Subject: Re: [WAR] Warwickshire Death Record of 1772 Hi again Jim I think the Marriage Record may be on findmypast.co.uk - if you visit the site there is an offer for 50 free credits in the bottom RH corner. You don't have to give your credit card details to register for this offer. The marriage is under Jane Buckly 1741 Astbury, Cheshire & will cost 20 credits to view the image. My only other suggestion is to contact Cheshire Records Office, they will do one 10 minute, free search.  You may be lucky, as you have the exact date of marriage & the Parish.
