And now the startling information that the Plymouth Synagogue register of marriages took 75 years to fill! I already knew of course, that any marriage venue might take many years to complete a register and some still haven't, but 75 years. No wonder we sometimes can't find marriages.

Chicken feed, OC. In Norfolk in the 1980s, the vicars were still using the registers starting in 1837.

Phoenix, yes, I remember a long discussion about a register which didn't appear to have been deposited, even though the searcher had the original marriage cert. It turned out to be that the church was rarely used for marriages and so the register wasn't full. (Traps for the unwary are everywhere!)
