MarriageMatch 1837-2005

Today Findmypast released a fully searchable index of marriages in England and Wales between 1837 and 2005. This is the first time a search can be made across the full year range, searching for the bride's and bridegroom's names together.

I've spent time over the past couple of months working on preparing the data for this. Good to see it launched. Family history researchers will find this very useful.

FMP will show up the first two or three of those variant spellings happily (and Chinner, which I'd not seen before), but I'm not sure how far beyond that it goes.
