Marriage place -
Spouse's first name(s) William
Spouse's last name Blackey
County Cheshire

Reference Page: 42 Record number: 126

From the image of the Parish Register ........

William Blake, Carpenter, of this Parish, Bachelor
Frances Dimelow of this Parish, Spinster
Married by Banns
Witnesses:- Thos Peers and Elizabeth Dimelow
Signed by William Blakie and Frances Dimelow

It definitely is Blake in the first place on the image, but that could just be mishearing and / or mis-spelling by the Vicar, as William signed Blakie

Incidentally, both William and Frances and both witnesses coudl write their names.

Thank you for that extra information. That’s helpful to know. It’s a challenge sometimes to think of different spellings for their names but you’ve done brilliantly.

That’s great. So Mary and Johns parents names too. Thank you.

I had to chuckle at the place name Witton cum Twambrooks!!!! Apologies for anyone living there, but what an unusual and amazing name for a place

I also giggled .... and googled to find out wehre it was, as OH comes from Chester.

To my amazement, I found out that it was part of Greater Budworth and now absorbed into Northwich, very close to where I taught school back in the mid 1960s!!!!

That was a pleasant surprise Sylvia. I was hazy about the Chester area and didn’t realise it was Cheshire. I thought it was Wales and that confused me. I did find a record that Frances came from Flintshire, and I imagine that must be a shire on the borders that no longer exists.
I have Welsh relatives too and they come from Monmouthshire but the boundaries have changed there too and sometimes they’re in one county and then in another.
I’m glad I asked about it so you could find out it was near your teaching job etc. Thanks for all your help
