A One-Name Study for the BARNUM/BARNHAM Surname
According to Boyd's Marriage Index, 1538-1840, they were married in Saint Peter Cornhill. This large, red brick church was built by Christopher Wren and was completed in the late 1680s. The church's tower is topped with a dome, as well as a St Peter's key ten feet long. The building is a reminder of how all City churches used to be, with its small churchyard and plethora of surrounding shops. The chancel screen inside the church is well known, as it was designed by Wren's daughter. The church is best known for supposedly being the site of the oldest place of Christian Worship in Britain, and was founded on the Roman Basilica in A.D. 179.
