G'day! With the help of Skye, my cousin's daughter, I'm able to send photos. This is a photo of the church in Eglingham where John and Jane were married. The banns were read out in this church on three Sundays preceeding their marriage on the 21 May, 1826. John had found his "bondager", Jane, to fufill his contract obligation to work on the Ilderton farm estate. His contract would have begun on, or about, May 12.
Jane was from East Lilburn farm estate located about 3-5 miles from Eglingham.
