For “Married” 1 FEB 1845 of Robert Nelson & Elizabeth Debenham

Elizabeth DEBENHAM 1845 Mar Thingoe vol 13 p.790

The bride's own row. A search of every Debenham marriage registered 1844-1846 returned thirteen rows and only this one shares Robert Nelson's volume and page, so the two entries are the same registration - which identifies his wife as a Debenham independently of the headstone.

For “Married” 1844 of Samuel Chapman & Mary Ann Debenham

Samuel Chapman 1844 Dec Thingoe vol 13 p.1213

The groom's row. Ten Samuel Chapman marriages were registered across England in 1844-45 and only this one is in Thingoe, and only this one shares the bride's volume and page - so the two entries are the same registration. The same test identified her sister Elizabeth's marriage to Robert Nelson at vol 13 p. 790, one quarter later in the same district.

For “Married” DEC 1861 of John William Brown & Martha Brown

Marriage date: Dec 1861Marriage place: Dorset, United Kingdom

FreeBMD marriage index entry; already cited on John William Brown #2018's own person record (citation #3696) since import but never synced onto the family union. No spouse name is given in the index row itself; identified as this marriage because Martha is his only recorded spouse and appears co-resident with him at every subsequent census (1871, 1891, 1901).
