If anyone is visiting the Preston R.O. could they please look up a wedding for me. Henry Caunce married Ellen ? 1848 Jul-Aug-Sept. I have been informed that I needed to buy the marriage certificate, but I believe that the records are available on microfiche as I have been given help in this way before.Henry was my great grandfather and details of his first marriage would be gratefully appreciated.

I believe that the records on fiche are the Parish records...........if so, you would need to know the name of the church. Reg

Are you positive of the date? There is a Caunce to Ellen marriage in 1845 on Lancsbmd - but he isnt a Henry. As you seem to know the quarter, is there no corresponding female name on the Index? OC
