Where did the residents of
Codnor Park go to get married pre-Civil Registration
In England and Wales, an extra-parochial Liberty like
Codnor Park, was a geographically defined area considered to be outside any
ecclesiastical or civil parish. They had no church or clergymen and were
therefore exempt from payment of poor or church rates and usually tithes.
Extra-parochial areas caused
considerable problems when they were inhabited, as Codnor Park was, they did not
provide religious facilities, local governance or provide for the relief of the
poor. Their status was often ambiguous, and until Ironville was constituted an
ecclesiastical parish in 1850 and Christ Church was built, the people living in
Codnor Park had to travel some distance to one of several local churches in the
area in order to get married.
Here is a table featuring marriages involving the residents
of Codnor Park prior to Civil Registration in 1837.
