The Cambridge Record Office very kindly did a lookup for me and gave me all the information I wanted including the witnesses. Equally helpful was a reply from Julia Henderson who gave me two possible baptisms for Sarah, the second was proved correct. The marriage details from the fiche of Ely St Mary was the same as the CRO with the exception that no witnesses were recorded. Researching in the originals often shows additional important details as this example shows. My thanks to the CRO and to Julia for their valuable help.
