Just received this email from cousin - can anyone help please? What does it mean and why a choice of church?
"Document just arrived it said on the 29th July 1746 that Edward Beazley of the parish of St Mary Magdalen, Bermondsey would marry Sarah Allen of the same parish with the permission of her father William Allen, she being but 20 and he 22.
I assume that they were to marry at St Mary Mag, Bermondsey, it then went on about a sevice to solemnize the marriage in the Parish Church of Kingston on Thames or the Chapel at Petersham in the county of Surrey or the Parish Church of Hampton or Hampton Court Chapel in the County of Middlesex.
Not sure I understand just what is meant here. are you aware of what is meant and would there be a document to look for."
