	Does anyone please have access to any Cumberland Parish Records. I'm looking for a marriage between John Fothergill and Ann Hudson at Greystone, Cumberland on 28th May 1836. I found it on LDS but I would love to know if the parents names are on the record as they are not on LDS. Jean

	Parents are not named on pre 1837 marriages as far as I know. Suzanne

	Thanks Susanne, I meant father not parents anyway but if they're not on it doesn't matter. I have their parents, I think, just wanted to make sure.
