This seems to be very strange...

I have Parthenia Gill (christened on 29 July 1753 in Kingswinford) marrying Thomas Talbot (1745 - ) on 7 June 1772 at St Mary's, Kingswinford, which is where she also married a Thomas Bullas also on the same date !?! How can that happen?

Please could you clarify?

Anyone have the kingswinford prs that we can see if that bapt exists then I can add her to Bcc

Ok checked and There is only the marriage of Thomas Bullas to Parthenia on the 7th June will add that here
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =763078296

and that is the only one I can see on igi too when I put in the names.

so dunno where the Talbot one came from...other than seems she was a witness at a prev wedding on same day of john westwood and sarah holt so maybe put down twice in error.

Is parthenia query completed ?
if so I will move to arc.
