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 f
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,

Kathy,
It is my understanding that banns are called in the churches of both future
partners.

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

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
parishes obviously record the same couple.

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

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

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 t

I am not sufficiently familiar with Scottish records to answer the question.

Thanks Mike. Will follow your suggestions, and yes I'm quite glad that
event names can be easily changed if needed without having to re-enter
every detail.

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:

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.

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.

I have a Scottish couple who married in two parishes on two dates.
31/08/1766 in Madderty, Perth
and then again on
10/09/1766 in Findo Gask, Perth
Both marriage dates are valid and correct for each parish, so how should I
record these?
Thanks
