Use the reference numbers shown in bold on this page to search for individual records within our archive collections.
We only manage archive records relating to Manchester wards. Where records are held by another local authority, we have provided a link to the relevant archive service.
Marriages
The only marriage registers we hold are for North Manchester (formerly Brodyer) Synagogue, Prestwich. These cover 1895 to 1915 (ref GB127.M442/2/2/1-4). Records on our archives catalogue are indexed by name. If you want to look at the registers, note the reference number and visit the Central Library search room, no appointment needed. Ask a member of staff if you need help finding it.
Marriage registers for other synagogues will be held by them.
A lot of synagogue marriages are indexed on Lancashire BMD.
