Forest of Dean FHT Forum - Extraparochial residence 1806 https://forum.forest-of-dean.net/ Connecting Forest of Dean Researchers World-Wide en Extraparochial residence 1806 (reply) Hi there.

According to my map of the Forest of Dean parishes, only East & West Dean were extra parochial. Littledean was a parish.

My ancestors from the Ex Par area baptised their children and married all over the place, so you have to look around for them. But they usually stayed within the Forest.

Should I presume that the bride was from Littledean? Or, is there some other location I might try, her surname was Williams and I know there are many in that area? Trying to still work my way back to find parents of said gggg grandparents.
Thanks
Cathy
