I notice that many of the BCC entries give full details from the parish records. There is a particular parish record I would love to have an image of -- does anyone know how I can get it? I would like to know whether any parents are identified, and the names of witnesses, if they are supplied. How do I get to see St Martin parish registers?
This is it (from Find my Past):
First name(s) : Rhoda . Last name : ROUND
Marriage year: 1836 . Marriage date: 25 Jan 1836
Marriage place : Tipton
Spouse's first name(s): Thomas . Spouse's last name: DAVIES
County: Staffordshire . Country: England
Family Search additionally identifies it as St Martin's, Tipton, and the following information:
"England Marriages, 1538–1973 ," database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:NXYC-YML : 10 December 2014), Thomas Davies and Rhoda Round, 25 Jan 1836; citing St. Martin, Tipton, Stafford, England, reference 2:3S326NH, index based upon data collected by the Genealogical Society of Utah, Salt Lake City; FHL microfilm 1,526,189.
https://www.familysearch.org/search/rec ... %3AEngland
Rhoda and Thomas are my great-great-great-grandparents. One of Rhoda's sisters, Lydia, is on the BCC site.
Many thanks

Re: parish registers
As the marriage is 1836 you do not get fathers names.
www.freereg.org.uk is very good for helping searches, no image though.

Re: parish registers Jo Adding
WOW! What speed! What efficiency!
And thank you so much for telling me about Freereg, which I did not know about. I can see hours of fund there. Thanks to Jimmy I have now been able to confirm the two marriages of my ancestor Thomas Davi(e)s.
The census data for the Davies family is correct.
I am getting Amelia and Lydia confused. Sorry about that. Lydia is not on BCC, but Rhoda’s sister Amelia is.
I came to you through looking at BCC because I saw you had Amelia Round and not her parents or her sisters Rhoda and Lydia). Amelia married Joseph Bradley.

Once again, many thanks

So Amelia Round on BCC is here
https://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/t ... ver=416917
No father named on her marriage to Joseph Bradley. So we will have to see how she fits in.
