What age would be considered 'minor' in 1838 for marriage listings?
It interested me also that I have a marriage certificate that lists this person as 'full age' whereas when I viewed the Parish record it listed her as 'minor'.
Which would you tend to believe, if it's possible to say?

I take All 'Written Records' with a 'Pinch of Salt', but I would tend to believe the Parish Records.
