I have a marriage proclamation from Scotland. They had to be in the parish for 3 weekends i.e. 7, 14 & 21 March. So which date do I use for the marriage date? Heather

I don't know, do they act like Banns in C of E church, in which case the marriage is likely to be within the week following the last date? Gwyn

Gwyn, Yes they are Banns I think. So they would have married after the last date. Thankyou Heather
