I have baptisms marriages and deaths for a local parish from 1988-1887

Baptisms show parents names in all the cases and some include the date of birth, description baseborn and others the age at baptism..................some were 10years or older

From 1813 the marriages include the witnesses and from 1837 they also show the father of the bride and groom

Hope this helps you.

Thank-you Kitty it is a marriage in 1832, so no father will be on there thats what I am looking for.

It might be worth e-mailling the local archives office to see how much they charge for a search.
Ive been fairly lucky doing it that way and it's not that expensive...so long as it's not a London one
