For Samuel Bowler & Mary Ann McKay

Samuel BOWLER | 1872 Dec | Canterbury | vol 2a p.1202

GRO marriage index, groom's row: Name | registration quarter | registration district | GRO volume and page. The only Samuel Bowler married at Canterbury between 1865 and 1878. Cited at quality 2, not 3: see the note on the bride's row for the page-number caveat.

England & Wales, FreeBMD Index of Births, Marriages and Deaths · General Register Office (via FreeBMD) · 1837–1992

For Samuel Bowler & Mary Ann McKay

Mary Ann McKAY | 1872 Dec | Canterbury | vol 2a p.1202a

GRO marriage index, bride's row: the only Mary Ann McKay or Mackay married at Canterbury between 1865 and 1878. Same district and quarter as the groom's row, but FreeBMD renders the page as "1202a" against his "1202" - normally the mark of a second index copy transcribed for the same page, though I could not confirm that, so both rows are cited at quality 2 rather than 3. The pairing rests on there being exactly one Samuel Bowler and exactly one Mary Ann McKay married in Canterbury district in that whole period, and on the tree already holding them as a couple whose children are registered at Canterbury from 1877.
