Bob Kirk and his team in Tameside Register Office have recently been going over the early Registrar Attended Marriages checking for any errors and ommisions, and have also been listing the various venues where the Registrar went out to conduct these marriages. He has produced a list downloadable here in PDF format. This list is very much worth reading to understand the sheer diversity of venues. The very early registers also include some chapels in Oldham since Ashton and Oldham Registration Districts were combined until 1848. Regrettably there are no Hyde venues listed, since these came under Stockport Civil Registration district. So if you are still searching for a marriage in Tameside between 1837-1879, you could try searching CheshireBMD again.
