Marriage by Sheriff's Warrant.....

Post by stephlangan » Sat Sep 09, 2006 11:56 pm

Hi all

Just hope someone can explain to me what it means when someone gets married by Sheriff's Warrant. Just found this on marriage certificate of David Nicoll to Margaret Ann Millar Burns in 1884 in Dundee.

Many thanks

Steph
