	The only way you will get extra information will be to go to the records office and look at the original parish record. This will give you the ages of the couple, or say if they were of full age (over 21) It will tell you if they lived in the parish where the ceremony took place, or if they came from a different parish. It will give the name of the witnesses, but not the fathers names. Linda
