Marriages 1639-41
Note these are the dates given by the Canterbury Cathedral Archives -- there were no dates at all on the pages themselves.

The xerox I have of this is very poor (I understand the original is likewise).
I have not been able to transcribe many of the entries.
The ones I could read are below. Note that the following months had no entries:

• 1639 - December
• 1639/40 February and March
• 1640 June
• 1640 August
• 1640 October - [three illegible entries]
• 1640 November and December
• 1640/41 February, March and April
• 1641 - July and August
• 1641 - November - illegible - I can’t even tell if there were entries!!
• 1641 - December

Banns and Marriages 1653/4 to 1662

This has been transcribed from a xerox of a microfiche of the parish registers.  In some parts the original register may be clearer.  The level of uncertainty is shown by an increasing scale of question marks.  Note:  Until near the end each marriage had the following format:

The publications of Richard Pordage and Elizabeth Dale were upon the 27 day of November and the 4 and the 11 days of December and they were married the 26 day of December by Justes Scot 1653
