Shoal Harbour Methodist church records - Marriages for various surnames

What follows is a list of all marriage entries for the following surnames:

Greening
Pike

in the Shoal Harbour Methodist church records held at PANL as of September 2009. Also included are a number of entries that pertain to English Harbour and Salmon Cove, Trinity Bay, as well as other entries that may have caught my attention.

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.

Some comments about these lists:

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 entries for the surnames listed above.

At PANL these records are in several volumes as follows:

1892 - 1921
1939 - 1950
1950 - 1962
1962 - 1975

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

Entries are separated by one or more blank lines.
