Citations and Notes

General Notes
n1: The archdeacon's transcripts and the select marriages index give a date of 13 Sep for the marriage whereas the parish register transcript produced by the Kent Family History Society states 30 Sep. However, since the banns were last read on the 11 Sep at Cheriton it seems likely that they married on the 13th and that the 30th is a transcription error.
