Good morning Rick, You have enough to contact PAHRC now! If your ancestors met and married in Phila and had children in 1820's the search for sacramental records is limited to Old St. Joseph and Old St. Mary and possibly St. John the Evangelist for any children born after 1830 who didn't survive (quite possible!). St. Augustine was also in existence, but your ancestors appear to be south of Market St., a dividing line between parishes.
