Not yet, Maggie. The first marriage there for a Cambridgeshire couple is my ggg-grandfather and his second wife. They have a good reason though as she was the niece of his first wife, so the marriage was a bit dodgy! Also, they had already produced a child together whilst his first wife was on her death bed , so yet another reason for a discrete wedding!! I can see they used this church because it was the usual place of worship for the groom's nephew's family (they lived in Bloomsbury) but I have not yet worked out why some of the others made the same journey from Cambridge.

Maybe it was something to do with the routes into London, or nearby cheap hostelries?
