Could anybody with a Find My Past subscription do me a marriage look up please?

I'm looking for a marriage between John Caines and Mary Miller in Dorset
They were married by 1739 according to her Fathers Will.

There is an entry for 1668 Cerne Abbas Dorset and I wondered whether it is that one

Thank you

Thanks for looking. I have the Caines/Nutt marriage and it isn't them.

Mary was the daughter of Michael Miller of Plush as I have his Will. The Will was drawn up 1739, so Mary had married by then.

Thanks, I do appreciate the help

just wondering if Mary was a widow when she married John Caines?

There are marriages for a Mary Gay, Mary Sale, Mary Nut....should we look for an earlier marriage of Mary Miller to any of the above surnames?

Hi Nicky

I hadn't considered that Mary was a widow

Yes please to checking the other marriages

More than likely the marriage would have been either in Plush or Buckland Newton. Dorset

Thanks

Jan
