In Response To: Re: "in-laws" not so defined. ()

If you have copy of the jane knipe will I would also appereciate a copy - I will check again next week when back in Peel - Andreas was the first reg I looked at, at that time for other reasons than thought of transcribing all marriages, unlike all other regs I've transcribed I didn't note the sequence of entries in the register thus if I made a mistake in noting the date I would have no other check (I learnt my lessons after this when I decided to 'do' all 18th C marriage reg entries).

The 1911 copy does sometimes make mistakes but generally it is because a heading in the register has been misinterpreted - some registers are extremely untidy and date headings appear often to have been added by later hands (sometimes this is checkable as a date and a feast day may be given thus the year is derivable) - however 99.9% mistakes are in the igi transcription of that copy.
