BLOORS OF DALE ABBEY, DERBYSHIRE
NOTE : This transcription was done many years ago when I was still a beginner at researching. Although I believe the dates given are accurate, it is unlikely to be a complete transcription as I seem to remember coming across some difficult - to - read entries which, rather than make the effort, I merely ignored! Also, the marriages from 1813 onwards only include those where the groom was a BLOOR.
