Walsoken look up- Wright Family

Hi everyone
I would be very grateful if some one is able to help me with a look up please. I know Walsoken is in Norfolk but I understand the registers are at Wisbech. Correct me if I'm wrong!
I am looking for the baptisms of Samuel b c8132 and Rebecca b c1834.
Their parents are John Pretty & Mary(?) Wright. I don't think they were married in Walsoken but they could have been.
The second name Pretty has been given to each generation and I am looking
for proof it is here with either Samuel or Rebecca. I want to find out where Pretty came from.
Many thanks
Carol

I guess you have probably got them on the 1851 census. If not I see that John was born in Caldecott Rutland, and Mary was born in St Ives Huntingdon, so they may have married in either of these two places.

Yes, I am having trouble finding confirmation of their baptisms as well.
That's the trouble with living so far away. I can't just nip in to the record office.
My source isn't very reliable so I need to keep an open mind and check everything.
Many thanks

Hello SB
I know they are and I am on the south coast.
I was hoping someone may have a transcription
that they could do a look up for me.
Alternatively if someone is going to the record office
and could spare a few minutes I would be very appreciative.
Many thanks
