3 x Grt Grandparents Marriage

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

Mumbles Report 10 Feb 2020 12:44

I am trying to find the marriage of my 3 x Grt grandparents marriage without a lot of info to help:

My 2 x Grt Grand father is George Briggs born 27 July 1809 baptised 13 Aug 1809 at Saint Mary Le Bone church Marylebone London.
His parents are shown as Samuel Briggs and Ann. This is the problem as I don't know her maiden name:
Any chance that a marriage might be found in Marylebone around that time that might point to them being the parents.

Sorry for the lack of info any help that you can give will be much appreciated:

Mumbles.
