Kent / Re: Woolwich, Kent; Church of England nearest to St. Mary Magdalene?

Casalguidi--
thank you very much!! Very Much!! 
I hadn't been able to make any progress with this and it was a definite stumbling block, for years.  This will help me find his Regiment and etc. I hope, and move forward.
Not sure where you've found it, but thanks so much--

Again, thank you so much for your offer to help.  Ancestors were Abraham ROBERTS (a soldier) and wife Alice.  This info was obtained recently from their eldest son John's marriage certificate (in YKS).  We found that John and (surprisingly) a brother Joseph, were christened in St. Mary Magdalene in 1822 and 1824 respectively.  This is all new information; I had been hoping to find Alice and Abraham's marriage certificate or find them on a census in Kent but no luck (maybe since a soldier?).  Vague family lore indicates that there may be a Welsh connection? and a stonemason connection?  Stalled--any help much appreciated!  Pibrocher in Canada

Kent / Woolwich, Kent; Church of England nearest to St. Mary Magdalene?

I am in hopes that someone knows the Woolwich area?  Christening records of two ancestors (c 1822 and 1824) were found at St. Mary Magdalene there, but no marriage record.  I have become aware that often parish churches could not perform marriages, that a Church of England would need to perform this.  I would like to know of the name(s) of the nearest Church(es) of England to this area.  (A long shot, I know, but other avenues are becoming exhausted!)  Thanks so much for any help!  Pibrocher from Canada
