Look up who and what year. Pentelow Covington Huntingdonshire is far too vague

Checking on the LDS site (Family History Library Catalogue) with a place search Covington shows that the parish register has not been filmed by the LDS (the local bishop refused permission for the LDS to film many Hunts parishes, hence Hunts is not well covered on the IGI).
Similarly checking Huntingdonshire Family History Society website shows that there is no transcription for sale.
And finally checking Covington parish on www.genuki.org.uk states that they are available at Huntingdon Record office, although marriages are included in the Hunts marriage Index and burials 1604-1900 are on the NBI and the burial index is available at http://www.familyhistoryonline.net/
But for baptisms I'm afraid that they seem to be available at Huntingdon Records Office only.

Hi David
Join the club - one of the pitfalls of having Hunts ancestors I'm afraid.
But you make up for it in Beds where virtually all parishes pre 1812 are on the IGI AND the transcripts are available for purchase in either hard copy or fiche format.
Swings and roundabouts
I take it that Melbourne should read Melchbourne, and not the Cambs parish (bit early for the Australian one). Not quite sure what you mean when you say neither was of the parish. Do you mean you can't find their baptisms in the register, which is not quite the same thing. If the marriage entry doesn't give an alternative parish of residence then the assumption is that they were residents of Melchbourne (although detail in entries at that time is usually minimal). But being resident at the time of marriage doesn't mean they were born there.
Bear in mind also that if they married in 1679 they were quite likely to have been born prior to 1660 during the Commonwealth Period, when parish registers are often deficient. So they may have been born in Melchbourne and there is no record of their baptism/birth.
Other than that check everywhere you can for instances of the name appearing in that area to see if you find a pattern.
Regards
David

Thanks David, Some very good tips in your reply.
I understand what you mean quite well regarding the term
otp or not because it was the same with my gt-gt grandfather Joseph who married at Kimbolton in 1809 and yet it was entered on the marriage index as comming from Dean and yet with a check on the PR/S no entry exists for him.
I could argue till the cows come home on your point that it don't always mean they was born in the parish even when you see the word otp. but perhaps you could apply the word better by saying, He or she was found to be living in the parish at the time of the marriage which might be a better way to understand it a lot better.
Yes I do mean Melchborne, Just below Dean.
