"The .1. of Agust Thomas Gotam : Mary Reede:" - under heading 'Ano: 1661'
Also in DCRS transcription of Exeter Cathedral PRs
Why was it recorded in both?
It appears the marriage was by licence, issued the same day; as this would have been obtained in Exeter I expect the marriage did take place there but it was recorded in Littleham register as it concerned Littleham parishioners.
Marriage License 1 Aug 1661 Exeter, Devon, England
Bond - Provided by 'Thomas Gothan and Matthew Bennett of Exeter, clerk' for the marriage of Thomas Gotham of Littleham, mariner and Mary Keade [sic] of Littleham, spinster
