Hide Details Note: "The vows that Dorothy and William made to each other on their wedding day in the parish church of St. John the Baptist in Piddington were similar to the formal vows sometimes still used today. Marriage was created, said the vicar, for the mutual society, help, and comfort, that the one ought to have of the other, both in prosperity and adversity. Wilt thou, William, love her, comfort her, honour and keep her in sickness and in health...? Wilt thou, Dorothy, obey him, serve him, love, honour and keep him in sickness and in health... They both answered positively. And then they vowed to each other their love for better for worse, for richer for poorer, in sickness and in health, till death us do part.
They could not know what these promises would later require of them."
