It made me look twice!

I've not had a marriage certificate like this one before, have you seen anything similar?
I've just got to work out how they're related now....

 

[Tim]

Well the 2 Edward's are 1st cousins, making William and Susanna 2nd cousins.

Thanks for sharing this, Tim - one to treasure!

I've got a few where all the people on the marriage certificate have the same surname - but not one (I don't think) where the fathers share the same name and occupation...

Here's one of mine. The fathers in this instance are brothers, which means this is a marriage of first cousins.

I have one of those as well, where the fathers were brothers. A marriage of first cousins and my grandmother was one of their 14 children. A "shotgun" marriage I suspect since the first daughter was born three months later.

Here is mine, the fathers were brothers.
The groom's birth was registered as William Alfred, it's not clear when it was changed to William Henry. That certainly made me doubt my research, momentarily of course.
