Bay Roberts Methodist Marriages

What follows is a list of all Pike marriages in the Bay Roberts Methodist church records held at PANL as of November 2010. 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.

• 1884 - 1955
• 1955 - 1972

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
