Find Ancestors

ok thank you, sorry been off for a few days, wife dropped the laptop

Ancestry have parish records for some of the London parishes Steve.

Banns: Banns are read for (usually) three consecutive weeks prior to the wedding - in the church of the bride and groom - just to make sure that everyone knows the wedding is going to happen and if anyone is going to object they have a chance.

Married in 1882, says full age hes a widower, occupation market poster, father coster monger.

got to go know, early start, will check to see if more info tommorrow
cheers everyone

what is banns ?

where did you find that helen

That record that Helen posted?

If the age is not obvious (ie Banns or where they put "full age") it is quite often transcribed as the year of the event. Confusing or what?

Jill

Could this be him?

unfortunatly my nan says she thinks elias (her grandfather) hung himself

it says she was 26 when got wed, poss mistake ? as i think it might be 1888

ive got the wedding cert, annie henrietta sheringham married martin michael nathan 12/12/1916

think born 1888

There isn't a marriage for either an Annie or a Henrietta Sherringham in 1916 on Ancestry.

EDIT - SORRY - there is a marriage in 1916 - I but two "r's" in Sheringham by mistake. On the marriage record she is Annie H. Sheringham.
