Hi

I'm not 100% certain but I think the marriage was probably at Holy Trinity as stated on BMSGH site.
St Mary's was the parish church and then the new one was built at Wordsley. Marriages were conducted at both and it looks as though the Family Search site has St Mary's down as the "main author" for the combined records, and Holy Trinity as "added author". This results in the wrong church being named in the new site... I think :roll:

It is something like that

when we look them up they are in the Wordsley Holy trinity but says St Marys on IGI

but PR is Holy Trinity

BC wench is that correct?

I know I have been confused when expecting to be looking at St Marys and directed at archives
to the Holy Trinity one instead and the marriage is in there

Thanks everyone. Think it is safe to say it was Holy Trinity as several of George's sibs were married there. I've not run into this before. Thanks all.
