Done a bit more digging tonight.

There is a SUBMITTED entry of a marriage between John Garlick and Alice Whittaker on 22 August 1765 Prestwich. Their son Thomas Garlick or Whittaker is baptised on 8 September, how very odd when his parents are married.......


...no they aren't! the actual date of their marriage was 22 SEPTEMBER 1765. The IGI submitter obviously brought the marriage forward a month for respectability's sake, lol!

They had shedloads of children all called Garlick. What spitefully long memories the clergy had
