Document of the Month, October 2018: Marriage of Captain James Cook and Elizabeth Batts, 1762 St Margaret's Church, Barking, a beautiful church which I often visit 

To learn more about Captain James Cook who knew Barking so well in the 18th century when he married local girl Elizabeth Batts at St Margaret's Church - do take a look at pages 24, 25 and 26  in one of my books below published by Amberley upon the 50th anniversary of the merger of Barking and Dagenham boroughs.

Another bride and groom who married at St Margaret's Church Barking guess who?
