The history of the Richard Greensitt's family

Richard and Margaret had the banns for their wedding read at the parish church, Chester le Street, on 3rd, 13th and 20th November 1763. The banns were also read on the same days at Bywell parish church, as Bywell was Margery's home village. They were married on 4 December 1763 at St Peters parish church, Bywell.
