The name in brackets at the end of each entry is the church where the marriage was to be solemnized; where a saint’s name only is given, the church was at Lincoln. “Ditto ” in brackets signifies the same church as in the preceding entry; and where both parties reside in the same parish, and the marriage was to be solemnized at their parish church, the name is not repeated in brackets. In order to economize space, “aged” is abbreviated “æt.,” “yeoman” “yeom.,” “husbandman” “husb.,” “widow” “wid., “application” “appln.;” besides a few other obvious abbreviations. Places situate in other counties than Lincoln are generally so specified.
