I am wondering where to look for a marriage between Walter Haddock b abt 1720 (probably born in Staffordshire, possibly Cannock) and Mary, the marriage being about 1742.

The marriage may be in Cannock, Staffordshire.

I already details of their children, thank you. They are all born in Birmingham, Warwickshire.

Many thanks :-)
