Please note that the Southam marriage records are away banns, so the coverage is out of Warwickshire and many of the records do not specify a location. Banns are published in the parish of the groom and the parish of the bride on three consecutive Sundays prior to the wedding day. If the bride and groom live in different parishes, the banns have to be published in both parish churches. So for each of these records, either the bride or groom is a Southam parish resident, and the other comes from a different parish. These banns were published in Southam, but also in the other parish.
We are working in association with Pam Batstone and Mary Williams to publish these records.
