Hi, Sorry, I don't mean to cause any offence but I don't know anything about the spiritualist religion. Two of my ancestors were married in a spiritualist church in Salford, Manchester. - I don't know how to find this record - e.g. chapel, unitarian, etc. etc. I understand (slighty) , spiritualism, but I don't know what your churches are called. Any information gratefully received. Regards, Dea.

Hi The Spiritualists National Union, Redwoods,Stanstead,Essex telephone 01279 816363 may be of help or The Greater World Christian Spiritualist Association telephone 02074367555. Your local paper or library may also advertise local Spiritualist services. Good Luck in your search.

Dea When looking for non-conformist registers, you are looking for series prefixed RG.(Records Offices) Incidentally, I wasnt aware that Spiritualist Churches were allowed to perform marriages in the 1800s? Marjorie

'Mornin' everyone, Thanks for your suggestions - I will follow them all up. By the way, marjorie - you could well be right about the 1800's - fortunately this one was in 1919. Thanks again, Dea.
