John Dolman 1728/29 Calne/Cherhill & Mary Green

2) Marriage check

We checked for further details of the marriage in 1761 for John DOLMAN to
Mary GREEN.
The entry on fiche confirmed the following:

By banns
Both were of the Parish.
Both made their mark.
No marital status given.
Witnesses: Chris GUNDRY or GUNDEY, and Sarah HORTEN.


3) Baptism search

Looking for Mary GREEN (marr 1761).
I note that the IGI says "about 1740, Calne", and we found the following
possibilities:

CALNE
Parish Baptisms
1733/34 Mar 14 - Mary, dau of Thomas GREEN
1749 July 29 - Mary, dau of William GREEN, of Tibbalds Green
(taken from unpublished transcript in Wilts R.O.)

We also double-checked the period 1738-1742 chronologically, as well as
using index.

Without further information, it would appear that the 1733/34 entry is
possibly her.
I did do a quick marriage search, to see if there might be another entry for
her, and found this:

DATE: -- MAR 1756 PLACE: Calne
GROOM: REEVES Stephen of Blackland
BRIDE: GREEN Mary of this parish
Banns only - no marriage recorded.

Which could strengthen our case in this respect.

John Dolman 1728/29 Calne/Cherhill

Looking for children of John & Mary DOLMAN (marr Calne 1761):

CALNE
Parish Baptisms
Started search 1761
Stopped search 1779
No children of John & Mary recorded here, but there were three contemporary
couples: James/Sarah, Walter/Betty and Isaac/Mary.
Details of their children can be extracted if you wish.
(taken from unpublished transcript in Wilts R.O.)

We then searched for them in Cherhill. This parish register proved very hard
to read because it is badly written, and the photocopied handwritten
so-called index in the searchroom is very poor. However it did show us that
there were some children of John and Mary DOLMAN here, so we extracted the
following from the original register on fiche, with confirmation of some
difficult bits from the BTs where available:

CHERHILL
Parish Baptisms
Started search 1761
1764 May 06 - William, son of John & Mary DOLMAN
1766 Jan 19 - John, son of John & Mary DOLMAN
1767 Dec 25 - Isaac, son of John DOLMAN
1769 Oct 30 - Betty, dau of John & Mary DOLMAN
Stopped search 1779
(taken from original registers on fiche)

There are no BTs for 1764 and we are not 100% sure of the date 6 May, but
that is what it looks most like.
Also noted at Cherhill in this period, was the following:

CHERHILL
Parish Baptisms
1763 Oct 23 - Isaac, son of James and Betty DOLMAN
(taken from original registers on fiche)


2) Baptisms check

We found the following:

Confusing with all these John's, isn't it?
