The source that FS has given here is ENGLAND MARRIAGES and the URL to that site. I would use Family Search as your source, but if the related quoted source is listed you show their source as well.

In my personal opinion, there is no such source as "England Marriages" - the source is where all of those English marriage records came from - and usually there is a blurb noting where all of those records originated. I know that Ancestry is getting much better about that. It's important to know, because I only want information from government or church records - I do NOT want information provided by other genealogists.
