Marriages 1695 to 1730
Transcribed and donated to the Dorset OPC by Liz Draper from the Parish Registers
Arranged according to the Gregorian Calendar, with the Julian year indicated to the left of the forward slash (/) in those years
when the Julian Calendar, which ran from March 25th to March 24th, was in use (i.e. prior to 1752, 1751 being the transition year).
The Parish Register is difficult to read in places, so readers are invited to use this transcript as a guide only and to consult the original at the Dorset History Centre.
