Would a couple on the marriage index have same qtr. yr. district and volume no. but the page number be different? I would have thought they would have been together on the same page? Could someone advise me please, thank you.

Yes, they would have the same page number but if this a marriage you have found on freebmd (or Ancestry bmds) one of the page numbers could be mistranscribed. Check both images to be sure.

Yes they should have the same page number.

If you'd like to give names, I'll check for you.

Any apparent difference in page numbers is due to misreading of the records by the transcribers.

All marriage records show the 'couple' on the same page.

Thank you everyone for replying. I was looking at Ancestry bmd. I´ve just gone back and had a careful look again. It says SEPTIMUS MOORE 1st qtr. 1864 Bedale Yorks. Vol 9d P737.
Then JANE SWANN Vol 9d P729 but NO IMAGE AVAILABLE. I will probably have to get Septimus´s marr. cert to be sure, as he already had a pregnant wife up north when he married Jane who was also expecting. I don´t want to accuse the poor man of bigamy if it isn´t true! Thanks again for all your help.

Looks like he married Isabella Airey

Thank you everyone for helping. I have been able to trace the above Septimus back and he is not mine. I cannot find the second marriage of my Sept. even though I have him on all census right back from 1841 through to 1881. Jane his second wife came from Richmond in Yorks but he was born & brought up on the Tyne. Thanks anyway everyone.

Jane Swann married John Metcalf in 1864, so she is not the person you are looking for. If you haven't got a marriage certificate for his second wife, how do you know her previous name was Swann?

Regards

Andy

Stan, I didn´t know Jane´s name was Swann, she was the only Jane I could find married in the 1st Qtr. when the other Septimus was married. At least now I know she wasn´t Jane Swann. Thank you for looking for me.

Andy,yes you are right. Ances.won´t let me in to see the image for some reason. I assume she wasn´t a widow then as it says coal miner´s wife. But then again Husband isn´t on census. I have now seen son Matthew Deacon Moore on the Index for Gateshead, it was right under my nose here but I was following a red herring down in Yorkshire! So if I´ve got this right my Jane was originally Jane Deacon who married an Alderson and on the 1961 census she is living with her MIL. By 1971 she was a widow and married to Septimus Moore. Many thanks Andy I´ve been really puzzled over this Jane.
