I am searching for the wedding of Susan Stiling who married 1843 Wellington Somerset Oct/Nov/Dec. Volume 10 page 762. However, there is no one else on the page, the page before or the page after. Any suggestions plese or was it a celebate marriage? |

FreeBMD isn't complete so you'll need to buy the cert. Have you looked on FamilySearch? Janice |

It could be that he's accidently been entered wrongly and so will show up elsewhere but to do that you would at least need an idea of his name. |

It's been incorrectly transcribed. See how the font is different for Wellington? Click on the district. It will explain. Rose |

Don't have any idea of the name. I usually type out all the males name's and cross check on the 1851 census till I find the right one. It usually works. Where are you looking for the fonts for Wellington please? |

On the alphabetical index it says 742 and on the previous page record 762. Mistranscribed? |

Would say one of the wellington guys has been mistranscribed when the indexes were compiled at the time, all three on ancestry images show as 742. Go through 1851 with the three possible names. George Veals married Mary Robert Burston married Susan The only Charles Morgan in Wellington in 1851 is a 17 yo servant. |

Looks like a real poser. I suppose I'll have to buy the certificate. Was hoping to save money as had already driven 260 to We;llington in Somerset and come home little wiser! |
