  Family	John Aspell,   b. Abt 1790, Rider's Harbour, Trinity Bay, Newfoundland ,   d. Aft 1849, Harbour Grace, Newfoundland  (Age ~ 60 years)
  Married	13 May 1814	Trinity, Trinity Bay, Newfoundland   [2]
  St. Paul's CE Parish. In this era there was no Roman Catholic parish established in the Trinity/Bonavista Bay area. A priest from St. John's traveled out annually and performed baptisms and marriages in the outlying settlements. It appears that John and Bridget grew impatient so they decided to get married by the Anglican minister at Trinity. The groom and bride's names were recorded there as John Archibald and Bridget Brunnick. In September of that year, when the Roman Catholic priest finally arrived, their marriage was also solemnized within that religion.
  Married	23 Sep 1814	Rider's Harbour, Trinity Bay, Newfoundland   [3]
  The church records relating to the Aspells of Rider's Harbour start with the marriage of John Aspell. This marriage is recorded in St. John's (Basilica) Parish under the heading "Marriages in the Northern District". Groom & bride's names recorded as John Asbell and Bridget Brinnik. It appears they were married at Rider's Harbour since the witnesses at the marriage were recorded as Andrew and Catherine Aspell, likely John's father and sister.
