THE MARRIAGE LICENCES OF THE
DIOCESE OF EXETER FROM THE
BISHOPS REGISTERS
(Ref 138)
By
Lieutenant-Colonel J. L. Vivian
Part 3
This
book
covers
all
of
those
parishes
in
the
Dioceses
of
Exeter,
which
is
most
of
Devon.
There
are
thousands
of
entries
starting
in
1523
and
continuing
to1631.
It
is
arranged
in
chronological
order
and
gives
the
names
of
the
bride
and
groom
and
their
adobe.
It
is
the
ideal
tool
to
locate
the
that
missing
marriage,
particularly
in
those
parishes
that
have
not
surviving
parish
registers
or
are
particularly
difficult
to
read.
Sadly
there
is
no
index
but
is
searchable
although
I
would
also
recommend a thorough search by eye in addition to a computer search.
