Member Since: January 2006 Posts: 0 Send Message	Hi I am hoping someone would be able to look up a marriage for me? Robert Richardson married Mary Hepple on the 13 August 1828 at Gateshead Fell. If possible I am looking for any more details from the parish records, especially parents names and where Robert was born. Thank you in advance Helen

Robert and Mary had numerous children and so it would be difficult to guess parents names. I have located 2 possible birth records for Mary Hepple but need to know her father's name to make sure I don't choose the wrong one, and therefore end up down the wrong track entirely. If anyone could do a look up for me at Durham I would appreciate it. Thanks Helen
