875 marriages at Monkwearmouth St. Peter from 24 Jul 1831 to 1 July 1837. Witnesses not transcribed. We are working on earlier marriages.

Marriage bonds issued by the Durham Diocese 1704-1712 (1,028 bonds). There were no surviving bonds for the period 24 Mar 1704 - 25 Mar 1706 or 24 Mar 1708 - 29 Mar 1709.

Please read the Marriages Bonds section of the Transcription Samples page for a description of what information is found in bonds, allegations, and associated documents, and how we present that information.

The Diocese of Durham covered all of County Durham and parts of Northumberland and North Yorkshire. Marriage bonds were not issued on a per-district basis, so the District filter is ignored when the marriage bond database is searched.

These records are from Ron Nubley’s Index, which we are in the process of integrating into our collection, so when you buy one of these, you will immediately get the brief index entry, and the full entry will be transcribed and emailed to you within 3 days, at which point it becomes part of our database and you can view it again at any time.
