They may have been married at the Reg Office and not at a church, so you may want to purchase the cert you found the reference numbers for.

Bill, In an early response to this thread you gave some information taken from the OFHS Banbury Methodist's PR's. Where do I find these Methodist's PR's? Some of my wife's family come from the Shutford area and we think some of them may have been Methodists. Regards Kevin
Kevin, They are available through www.ofhs.org.uk on fiche (listed under Non-Parochial Registers) or on cd. The cd you would want is OXF-BAN01. It contains Banbury, St. Mary, South, Christchurch, Methodist Circuit, Presbyterian, Quaker, Roman Catholic & Neithrop PR transcripts.
