I've just spent nearly an hour trawling images on FindMyPast and Ancestry trying to find a marriage. I've got the details but looking for the actual image number on either Ancestry or FindMyPast to view.
Henry Stevenson and Joanna Elsham had banns called at Barrowden and at Hallaton, Leicestershire on the 8th/15th and 22nd of June 1755. I can find both images of the banns but cant see the actual marriage entry which Familysearch is quoting as 29th June 1755. Can somebody tell me the image number please as my eyes are going goggly. Not sure where they're getting 29th June from!
Any help greatly appreciated.

Sorry wrong Elsham marriage posted.
I have now located the right marriage on FindMyPast, it also follows on from the banns entry
-
Page 86/144 has the last marriage in 1753. Next couple of pages are blank.

Sorry having trouble posting the link. The banns entry on FindMyPast lists the dates as 8th, 15th 22nd June 1755
It then states
The above written Henry Stevenson and Joanah Elsham were married in this church the 29th June 1755 by me.

Thank you. Ill try and find it manually, what is this image number? Many thanks!!!

Not that it really helps but FreeREG has the Marriage as 29 Jun 1755 St Peter, Barroden
Henry of Hallaton, LEI, Joaneh of Barrowden
Register entry number 3
-
Ancestry only appears to have Bishops transcript of the marriage.
....
If you search for in the category Parish marriages on FindMyPast with just the following
First name - Joanna (Ticked for name variants)
Last name - Elsham
Year -1755
you should get 3 results
The first is Ann Elsham which is not your person but your marriage does appear above that entry on that page
The next
Elsham, Joana. - 1755 - Leicestershire Marriages And Banns - Hallaton, Leicestershire, England
which is the banns at Hallaton
Finally
Elsham, Joanah - 1755 - Rutland Banns - Barrowden, Rutland, England which is the same page as the Ann Elsham one. This entry is the one that is the banns and the marriage - it is signed by the clergy and signed/marked by the bride and groom
