I am hoping someone can help in a marriage request. I have a Charles Hipkiss and Mary Ann Dolbear marrying 1875 Gloucestershire. Family trees have it that it is the 4 August 1875. The FreeBMD index have them in the District of Westbury on Severn and it is the 3rd Quarter. What I would like is proof of this date and what other information that is on this record. It is possible that it will be non comformist as on the 1891 census for Ontario Canada their religion is Baptist.
Thank you for any help

There are 17 parishes in the Westbury-on-Severn Registration District ;D
http://www.ukbmd.org.uk/genuki/reg/districts/westbury%20on%20severn.html
Without knowing in which parish, and in which church, the relevant register entry might be difficult to track down?
So, probably best to purchase the Marriage Certificate?
