Hi Cispt2.
You can obtain original copies of Weedon Bec Parish Records from the Northamptonshire Record Office/Library/LDS Centres.

Hi Cispt2
I didn't mention the above formats noted by Marilyn, (mgeneas) who with Alan have done a lot for our County.
You can find his web link here http://www.northants1841.fsnet.co.uk/
There are also quite a few other transcribers with web sites, and volunteers who have transcribed records for the County.
Seeing as you are in the United States, LDS maybe your starting point.
The witnesses would be on the original image.
Sandy

Hi Matt.
I do not think you need to credit me personally, Rootschat of course. 
Everyone here is helpful to others.
You blog is very interesting, I will see how it progresses.
There seems to be the 12th Regt. of Foot, 20th Regt. of Foot, 1st Rifle Brigade, 54th Regt. of Foot, and Royal Artillery all marrying in the 1830 upwards.
Weedon Barracks was an extremely important place for Soldiers then.
Here is a link to it, in case you are not aware of it showing a brilliant photograph of how it used to be.

And maybe asking here may help further.

Good luck with your future research.
Sandy
