**Marriages - Most people married after banns were called; some married by licence. The banns record is valuable in that it records the place where the bride and groom lived; therefore, it is a guide to where a marriage may have taken place, that is, if you can’t find the marriage record. Post-1754 the marriage register indicates whether the wedding was by banns or licence. If a licence was issued, further details may be found in the affidavit or bond kept by the relevant ecclesiastical court. People also had the option of going to the Consistory Court of Norwich even when both bride and groom lived in the same archdeaconry. The [[England Church Records#Marriages|section on marriages]] in the <u>England Church Records</u> article outlines marriage laws and customs.<br> Consult the sections below – Court of Archdeaconry of Suffolk for Eastern Suffolk or Court of Archdeaconry of Sudbury for Western Suffolk or Consistory Court of Norwich for record availability.
