Forest of Dean FHT Forum - Marriage records https://forum.forest-of-dean.net/ Connecting Forest of Dean Researchers World-Wide en Marriage records (reply) The use of the term 'full' for the age on a marriage certificate usually indicates that the person was over 21. This is not very helpful when you are hoping to be able to ascertain the year of birth.

I've been going through the Christchurch Marriage Records with great interest! Ages are listed as "full".

(Here in the States each state sets it's own legal age....anywhere from 15 to 18.....so please pardon my ignorance!)
