Borthwick

[dotty.]

wierd entry on the IGI for a marriage in 1841 at 'The Borthwick Institute' but they were farmers from Lincolnshire. Can't work out what it's about. The GRO index has it as Sculcoates too which makes me think the IGI is right but why?

anyway, just phoned the Borthwick and the archivist agreed with me that it is probably an LDS member that has entered the marriage in the Index, but why is it Sculcoates? Benniworth was in Horncastle RD

I keep meaning to plan a visit to the Borthwick as they hold all the parish records for Yorkshire......I'm not organised enough yet as you need to have all the details in place so as to utilise your time slot.

It's odd that the IGI has it at the Borthwick which i understand if it;s a members submission, but the RD is wrong in the index for a Benniworth marriage. But York had it's own RD, if not more than one in 1841 when districts were geographically bigger.

far as I know Sculcoates is the regitration district for Hull.
