Re: [LegacyUG] One couple, Two weddings, No divorce, how to record both dates?

2013-10-23 Thread singhals
My experience agrees with Ron's observation that banns are
proclaimed/published/called in BOTH parishes under normal
circumstances.

And given the British usage of "book" to mean "reserve" I've
been assuming all along that was the date someone made the
arrangements to use the church or the priest for the ceremony.

FWIW.

Daniel,

What you describe is like the one in my family where the couple had two
marriages--one was held in the US ( parish of the bride), the other was
held in another country in the parish of the groom.

How did you record your two marriages in Legacy?

Thanks,

 If the couple divorced and remarried, just add a second marriage -
 it's as simple as that. You "end" the first marriage and then add the
 second marriage with the new date. You can add a marriage note in the
 second marriage about the reason why they remarried. I don't think a
 note is necessary for the first marriage, unless you want to write
 something about that specifically and why they divorced.

 I have a contemporary situation where the kids decided for some reason
 that they didn't want anyone to know about their real wedding date and
 wanted a fancier public wedding a year later and wanted the second one
 to be the known and celebrated date. I put the first wedding in and
 marked it as Private with a note that this was the registered marriage
 and they "publicized" and celebrated the second marriage, which,
 although was a real marriage, wasn't registered with the state.

I don't think so. The first is probably the Allegation. Part of the process of

A bit of Googling throws up a few mentions of this and apparently it
means the recording of the marriage in the Parish Marriage Book.  This
seems to be done in both Parishes where bride and groom are from
different ones and does not necessarily record the date of the marriage.

Hi,

As a new lurker here I can add another case with two weddings with no
divorce in between. I and my wife married in a traditional wedding in
Kenya, and a few months later married again in a church wedding in Sweden.
The first one is the "official" one for her culture (although we don't have
a written certificate), although the legally recognized wedding is the one
in Sweden. I suppose it's not that common that a couple marry twice without
a divorce in between... :)

Thing is though that the "Booked In" is in the Parish of Findo Gask, while
the 3 Banns are in the Parish of Madderty, some 7 or 8 miles away, yet both

Kathy,

I do not know the meaning of "booked in" either, it may simply mean that the 
church involved had been booked for the marriage - hence the charity donation.

It would not mean banns (that's proclamation) and since there is a proclamation 
after that date it cannot mean marriage (which would be held after the 
proclamations had been completed).

Re: [LegacyUG] One couple, Two weddings, No divorce, how to record both dates?

2013-10-23 Thread Kathy Thompson
The couple did not divorce and remarry Sherry.
I have a modern case of marriage, divorce, remarriage, and those dates were
many years apart.
The case I'm discussing at the moment is very much within a month's time
frame, and after help from others privately and much further examination of
the documentation, the Madderty documentation appears to show the calling
of three banns in one parish (proclamations), while the Findo Gask shows a
"booked in" between the 1st and 2nd banns calling.
As such, I know I can put the 3 banns as "Marriage Banns", but since I
don't yet know what "Booked In" means, I have no clue if this is a Banns or
a Marriage.
Added to this, the Madderty parish has no further record of the couple with
a notation of marriage, and so I suspect the third banns has declared them
married, but is this the "married date" or not?
Still puzzled how best to record the four dates across the two parishes
though.

Re: [LegacyUG] One couple, Two weddings, No divorce, how to record both dates?

2013-10-21 Thread Sherry/Support
If the couple divorced and remarried, just add a second marriage -
it's as simple as that. You "end" the first marriage and then add the
second marriage with the new date. You can add a marriage note in the
second marriage about the reason why they remarried. I don't think a
note is necessary for the first marriage, unless you want to write
something about that specifically and why they divorced.

I have a contemporary situation where the kids decided for some reason
that they didn't want anyone to know about their real wedding date and
wanted a fancier public wedding a year later and wanted the second one
to be the known and celebrated date. I put the first wedding in and
marked it as Private with a note that this was the registered marriage
and they "publicized" and celebrated the second marriage, which,
although was a real marriage, wasn't registered with the state.

RE: [LegacyUG] One couple, Two weddings, No divorce, how to record both dates?

2013-10-21 Thread Jennifer Crockett
Looks like three proclamations 31 Aug, 14 Sep, 21 Sep 1766. And the “booked” 
date of 10 Sep 1776.
In my experience the marriage often took place at the same time as the third 
proclamation.

Thank you Ron, I have posted this query on RootsChat, but I would be grateful 
for anyone to provide an answer.
Further examination of the Madderty record does show the couple mentioned twice 
about 2 weeks apart, and then another slightly ambigous entry a week later again
As such the four entries in total read in order of appearance:
Madderty - 1766 Aug 31  Robert Marshall in this parish and Elizabeth Lawson of 
Gask parish were proclaimed pro 1mo
Findo Gask - 1766 Sept 10  Robert Marshall in the Parish of Maddarty and 
Elizabeth Lawson in this Parish were booked in Order to Marriage and as usual 
gave to the Poor
Madderty - 1766 Sept 14  Robert Marshal and Elizabeth Lawson proclaimed per a?
Madderty - 1766 Sept 21  The foregoing persons were proclaimed pro 3rd

I've no experience with Scottish records. Their laws are very different to those
applied by the Established Church in England and Wales. But to me, it looks like
others have opined: an actual marriage followed by the recording of the marriage
in the second parish. You should probably take this to a mailing list or
newsgroup dealing with the interpretation of Scottish records.

That deals with the generally OT Discussion. Now, back to how to handle the
events in Legacy :-)

Two events would be my solution. Pending more informed information about
Scottish records, the 'normal' marriage and, as Ron ventured, an Alt. Marriage
event. The second event can always be adjusted (read replaced) at a later time.

Re: [LegacyUG] One couple, Two weddings, No divorce, how to record both dates?

2013-10-20 Thread Lavern Hall
Hello,

 I have an uncle who eloped and was married out-of-state by a Justice of
the Peace. A few years later, he and his wife were married in church. Both
marriages are legal, only one of course, was a religious ceremony.

In addition, there is another couple in the family who had two
marriages--one was held here in the home parish of the bride, the other was
held in another country in the parish of the groom.

I'd like to hear how others have made entries into Legacy to cover  two
marriages for the same couple?

Thanks,
Lavern Hall

RE: [LegacyUG] One couple, Two weddings, No divorce, how to record both dates?

2013-10-20 Thread Charles Apple
Kathy,



I am not very familiar with reading parish records, however, from the 
transcripts provided below it appears to me that they were “. . . Proclaimed” 
husband and wife in 1766 August 31. This appears to be the actual marriage 
ceremony. Robert Marshall and Elizabeth Lawson were “booked in Order of 
Marriage” on 1766 September 10; this appears to be a parish administrative 
issue where their marriage was officially sanctioned and recorded into the 
records of Gask parish.



I hope that is helps, however, I am not certain. Perhaps Mike and Ron can 
provide additional information.



Charles

The earlier marriage in Madderty reads:
1766 Aug 31 Robert Marshall in this parish and Elizabeth Lawson of Gask parish 
were proclaimed _?_ _?_   (I can't make out the last two words but since I 
can't post images to the group.)

The later in Findo Gask reads:
1766 Sept 10 Robert Marshall in the Parish of Maddarty and Elizabeth Lawson in 
this Parish were booked in Order to Marriage and as usual gave to the Poor

now that makes sense - fingers crossed Mike & Ron can help confirm that.
I know I'm going to need to record why there are the two in my marriage
notes so that I and others in the family don't get confused in years to
come.

Definite the same couple.
One parish has Him of this parish and her of the other parish
The other has Him of the other parish and her of this parish.
No mention of banns in either.
Will post transcripts of each if you think that may help.

Kathy,

Mike has already mentioned the possibility of the first date being Banns. Are 
you absolutely certain that they are not different couples with the same names 
- although because of the additional information given this is less likely with 
Scottish records than English.

It is possible that they did marry twice, say, his and her churches, in which 
case I would create am Alt Marriage Event for the second.

Are you sure that the earlier date is not for a reading of the Banns?
