Hi

I have drawn a blank trying to find any marriage records for a marriage between a Margaret Hancock (Carmarthen b abt 1838) and George Lee (Combe Martin Devon b abt 1833), they were married according to the 1861 Wales census and living in what looks like Dame Street in the parish of St Peters Carmarthen, their son Henry was born in Carmarthen in 4th Quarter of 1861 but I cannot find any trace of their marriage, can anyone help?

Many Thanks
Louise

I cannot find one either. :(
It does seem strange seeing as she lived there, was christened there and her parents married there.

There is a marriage for a Margaret Hancock/e in Carmarthen in June 1856 but it is not to George Lee. 11a/873

The two other males on the page are
James Cowen/Cowin
Charles Lewes/Lewis

Thanks Mutley, I saw that also and then tried doing a search on a Margaret Cow* or a Margaret Lew* to a George Lee but got nowhere :confused:

Hmmm!

I tried also, thinking he may have died and then she married George but without any luck at all. I tried just George to Margaret 56 -71 but nothing like them, though I had to limit it to Carmarthen because there were too many.
There are Lewis families in the census living very close by but that does not help. There just does not seem to be a possible marriage anywhere for George Lee.

Sorry :(

Thanks for looking anyway, I wondered if they were married at sea or overseas but that seems unlikely given the timeframe involved, doubt I'll ever get to the bottom of this one!!
