Methodist Marriages 1877 - 1891

Fortune Parish

PANL: v.105, Film: #2133920 Registering Official: R.C. Hopkins
All of the information contained in Vol 105 is a transcript of the original documents and is known to contain errors and is missing information. The original records held at the various churches contain the original data.

Also, it is highly possible that I have also made errors in transcribing these records. If possible, when in doubt, view the photocopied registers at the PANL.

Please note that the baptism date is the date when the original entry was made. Often, the year was only entered on the first record. I carried it down, but if I was unsure (you will see that some of the records seem to be out of order), then I left the year off.

Sta=Status: B-Bachelor, S-Spinster, W-Widow.

If there is a question mark next to or part of the name - that means I could not determine what that word or letter was.

If you see a name with a line through it and another name beside it or in parenthesis then this info appears to be corrections or additions made to the records at a later date by unknown person. I included both the original and corrected info as I saw it in the records so that the viewer could determine for themselves what the correct info was.

Transcribed by CHERYL McGREGOR, August 2001. While I have endeavored to be as correct as humanly possible, there could be errors.
