list in HR 1:19-20. From other sources, we know Mathew (who must have gone to court twice in two different courts) was married to Isabella Johnson in Ireland. She landed in PhillY on 31 Oct 1839 and we have the listing, but no Matthew found by our 1965 searcher. The symbols for Country of former Allegiance are Eng. (self explanatory) and GRBI (Great Britain and Ireland - a- very confusing term indeed when you do not know if an ancestor came from England, Scotland, Wales or Ireland), and the Court symbols are: CP:: Common Pleas-records now at Prothonotary's office, Philadelphia City Archives, Rm. 523, City Hall Annex, Philadelphia, PA 19107; QS:: Quarter Sessions Court at same address; SC:: Supreme Court of Pa., now at Pa Hist. and Museun Commission, P.O. Box 1026, Harrisburg, Pa. 17120. CC:: U.S. Circuit Court, now at Archives Branch, Fed. Archives & Recs. Center, 5000 Wissahickon Avenue, Phila., PA 19144. (Why did so many immigrants get naturalized in October?) Dates may indicate taking of the oath or of declaration of intention.

This is taken from Abstracts of Nottinghamshire Marriage Licences, Edited by Thomas M. Blagg, FSA et al (1930) for the British Record Society, and includes in Vol. 1, Archdeaconry Court 1577-1700, and Southwell Peculiar, 1588-1754. Not all marriages were by licence, in fact, most were by banns. See HR Oct 1965, p. 130 for Nottinghamshire Marriage records, and follow the series through to 1966. Even that record was incomplete. We include several entries from Vol. 2 as well.
