Marriage was too early to show names of fathers.

It does say that Elizabeth Ann was a Minor, and was married with the permission of her mother.

Hugh Edwards Hopkins is my GG Grandfather.
Details on the marriage of James Flloyd Hopkins & Betsey Edwards (my GGG Grandparents) are ........
Date 28 Dec 1803 (not 1804 !)
Testamentary Guardian: James Bowdery
Witnesses: Thomas Gulliver & T.W. Edwards.

Have sent a private message to "brillo" - this is to satisfy the normal curiosity of my fellow family researchers!

Happy New year to everyone!

Hi Irene


Thank you for that!


it is interesting to note that the BANNS were apparently read on 28 Dec 1804, while the marriage too place on 28 Dec 1803 :-D


Record Type: Banns
Event Date: 28 Dec 1804
Parish: St George the Martyr
Borough: Southwark
Register Type: Parish Register


Record Type: Marriage
Event Date: 28 Dec 1803
Parish: St George the Martyr
Borough: Southwark






I hadn't noticed that when I posted the information (got from ancestry) .......... just has to be a wrong transcription, of course!!




Happy New Year to you.

Hi Sylvia

The image on Ancestry has marriages for Dec 1803, then carries on with Jan 1804, etc. The year shown at the top of the page is "1804" - hence the confusion! As if we need those little errors thrown in to muddy the research waters even more ....... :-S

I am still trying to locate the Will of James Flloyd's father, Thomas Hopkins. There must be one for James to have had a "Testamentary Guardian", but I haven't found it yet!

Irene
