Pallot's Marriage Index

Pallot's Marriage Index: 1780-1837 contains more than 1.5 million marriage registrations from London and Middlesex, as well as 2,500 parishes in 38 counties outside of London. It covers all but two of the 103 parishes in the old City of London from 1780 to the onset of General Registration in 1837. Indexing began in 1813 with handwritten slips of paper identifying the names of the bride and groom, as well as the date of marriage and the church or chapel in which the wedding was celebrated. Indexing continued regularly over a period of more than 150 years, often including interesting details such as whether the bride and groom had been spinsters, bachelors, widows, or widowers.
