I've found in London signatures on the LMA website what I think is a marriage bond dated 21 April 1779 at St John the Baptist, Egham, Surrey. There is a marriage on IGI for a couple with the same names the following day at West Molesey (from IGI) approx 10 miles away.
Now I'm not clear about marriage bonds! Am I right in thinking that the groom came from Egham and applied for a licence there and then went to the bride's parish of West Molesey for the marriage? Or have I got it completely wrong
