St. John's Wesley Methodist Marriages

What follows is a list of all Pike marriages in the St. John's Wesley Methodist Church records held at PANL as of August 2004. This list constitutes a typescript of my handwritten extraction from photocopies of the original records, which is to say that I may have inadvertantly introduced some errors while transcribing and typing... as always, you should double-check against the original records. That said, if you spot any mistakes that I have made, please let me know at dapike@mun.ca. Additional Pike entries from other Newfoundland church records can also be found on my website.

Some comments about this list:

• The entries below are in the same order as presented in the church records, which was not always in chronological order.
• Unless I mistakenly overlooked an entry or two, this is a complete list of all Pike entries, including all entries where one of the marriage witnesses had Pike in his/her name.
• I also included instances in which somebody's middle name was Pike.

• 1905 - 1914
• 1914 - 1919
• 1919 - 1923

The format of most of the entries that follow is as follows:

• Line 1: Marriage Number, and Groom's name, abode, occupation, etc
• Line 2: Bride's name, abode, etc
• Line 3: Marriage date and location
• Line 4: List of witnesses
