6 August 1757
Spent at the White Hart with Messrs Moody & Hurst 4/-


Thomas is in Retford at the moment and this Inn is still in the main Square. It does seem to be the only pub in England which no-one has photographed and uploaded the picture to the web (If you spot one, let me know, please?)

Here is one taken in 1914 (!)


That's the White Hart on the Left.


9 August 1757
Tuesday Pegey Cox was married to Solomon Woodroofe of Stamford


Once again I can check this on FamilySearch.org and it tells me that this took place in Thomas's parish church, St Peter's. Of course, the parish registers call the bride by her given name of Margaret.
