See the Introduction for an explanation of the origin of this document.

As with the births, I have added information, where known, to fill out the record. This is indicated by printing it in italics. The spelling of the place names is as they appear in the 1997 Spanish version of Berwyn's Register.

The presentation of this table of marriages is of my own creation, designed in the hope that it will make it easier for readers to look for the records that interest them.
