MARRIAGES

 

Notes: Marriage Registers

 

The marriage registers have been transcribed from microfiche records obtained from The County Record Office, Trowbridge. Call nos: 1189/3, 1189/7, 8 and 9.

 

The state of the registers between 1686 and 1725 is poor. There is a line drawn beneath the entry dated 1725, and immediately beneath is the first entry for 1754. There are Baptism and Burial registers for the period 1725 - 1754, but no Marriage registers.

 

These transcripts were prepared to coincide with the Band of Gold Flower Festival in September 2001, a celebration of marriage. They have not been checked and individual entries should be verified against the original.

 

The last registered marriage is in 1951. The Registers were closed by order of the Registrar General in 1953 following the union of the Benefices of St Sampson and St Mary.
