Phil If you go to http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#start which has the IGI plus additional records and use the advanced search you should find the marriage of Robert to Lydia GODBOLD at Great Finborough on 26th February 1810. The bride's parish is given as Stavenupland which looks like a mistranscription for Stowupland. There are quite a lot of GODBOLD families in the Stowmarket area (my grandmother came from one) which may make finding her family difficult although on the plus side ther are a number of people researching the family and they may know of her. Unfortunately she doesn't appear to be one of mine! Hope this helps.
