I guess that seems logical then.

It was just bugging me that I had all the information - kids etc, but couldn't pin down their marriage.

The John Cook who came from UK to Australia was definitely born in Petersfield, Hants, and when his son Frank died, my grandparents went to the funeral.

Yeah, looks good now and of course reinforces the 'Blythe Hatchard' birth :)

Yep, and of course Langton Matravers is in the Wareham RD, it does make it more interesting, digging and digging and digging :eek:

Looking at the image it is not clear but I would say 860 because the other '1s' on the page are clear single strokes and the '1' on this is more like a closed loop.

Marriages Dec 1863
Cook John Portsea 2b 861

Marriages Dec 1863
Hatchard Elizabeth Ann Portsea 2b 860 ** no doubt about that one it is 860
