I am trying to find a marriage on 1837 online. It is a 2nd marriage for my grandmother. Should I be searching for her maiden name or her previous married name. It is proving more difficult than I thought. Many thanks. Marion |

Hi Marion, I think you should be searching for her previous married name. Tracey |

Thanks Tracy, I thought I'd struck gold straight away with her husband but alas she is nowhere to be seen. Back to the drawing board!!! |

Forgive me for overstating the obvious but have you tried FreeBMD to cross reference and avoid using more 1837 credits than necessary? |

Thanks for that Tracey but unfortunately BMD have only just started transcribing the marriages for that year. It's pricking my conscience again that I ought to volunteer to do some of the transcribing. I shall have to be brave and give it a go!! Marion |

Go on!! Join us transcibers. If I can do it, anyone can. Once you have started, it becomes addictive. So beware!!! Nesta |
