Hello: Because of the generous help of other listers (thanks Bill and Dick)I now know the baptism dates for the three children of Thomas BAKER and Maria COOK who married 26 Aug 1816 in Ludgershall, WILTS. Could someone please tell me the best way to obtain a photocopy of this marriage entry? My understanding is that the local registry office in Andover would only have registrations post 1837. Is that correct? Thanks for pointing me in the right direction...
