Why curses?

Peter Parkin's father could be Codrington.

You're right Patchem, have found him elsewhere.
Curses!

Hi Patchem

Grandparents were Thomas and Sarah Parkins, witnesses were Rebecca ?udron and George Wood

Chrissey

What were his grandparents' names, and who were the witnesses on the marriage certificate?

Any other spellings for the Coolington surname from the certificate?

Thanks

Hi

I am trying to find the parents of Peter Parkins, born in 1831/32 in Cardington, Beds. He was living with his grandparents in 1841 and 1851 and living in the Peterborough area in 1861 with wife and child.
His marriage certificate states his father as Peter Coolington, a shoemaker, but I canfind no Peter Coolington.

Can anyone help?

Regards

Chrissey
