Marriage lookup - 1840 St David's Liverpool

Hi

I would be very grateful for a marriage lookup as detailed below

I am helping a friend with his FH and have encountered a number of spellings of his surname which has made it a bit difficult. I already have all available IGI and census info

His Gt/Gt Grandparents were Henry Coombes and Susannah Aspinwall who married in the December qtr 1840 at St David's Liverpool.

The marriage entry shows Henry CUMES and Susannah ASPINALL

Henry was born in Woolton and I am hoping his father is Abraham as there is a Richard Cumes born Woolton with a submitted IGI entry showing parents Abraham Coombs and Margaret Collins

Susannah's father should be Richard (if I have done my research correctly)

Henry Coombes and Susannah Aspinall

Hello CaroleW
Why not order the Marriage Cert from the GRO? Will give you all the info you need and perhaps more. And, you will have the paper document.
Marriages Dec 1840:
ASPINALL, Susannah - Liverpool - 20 - 195.
CUMES, Henry - Liverpool - 20 - 195.

When ordering the cert, make sure to use the Cumes spelling, because that is how it is entered in the Index.
Cheers,
Dickiesam

Hi Dickiesam

I already have the reference thank you as I found the entry on both freebmd and LancsBMD.

I just require a lookup if anybody is visiting the LRO and has a few minutes to spare.
