Marriages at St Anne
in the Parish of Woodplumpton

Marriages recorded in the Register for the years 1604 - 1613

Out of order entries are left as in original record.
The Curate often spells the same surname differently within the same entry.
The given names Robte, Wyllm, and Leond have diacritical marks over them, indicating they have been contracted. Here they are written out as Robert, William, and Leonard.

Entered here 15 August 2006 by Lynn Ransom Burton.

   “From 25th March 1604 to 1st September
   1613 – These Registers are written on a
   number of oblong pages which once may have
   formed a volume, but which are now unbound
   and without covers, and many of the leaves
   are detached. The entries are very clearly
   and neatly written and were nearly all
   made by the Rev John Hollinworth. As there
   are no transcripts of these Registers at
   Chester and they are the earliest relating
   to the parish of St. Michaels which have
   been preserved, no apology is required for
   here printing them.”
   - Henry Fishwick, “The History of the
   parish of St. Michaels-on-Wyre in the
   county of Lancaster, with an Appendix:
   Woodplumpton Registers,” 1891, page 201.
