I'm not aware that ages were given in the parish register for marriages pre-1837 (I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong Smiley ).  If your great x4 grandfather lived until the time of the 1841 census you'd get some idea from that.  It can be quite frustrating, I know - I've got one ancestor who altered his age every time the census was taken and it's different again on his marriage and death certificates!

Sorry I can't be of more help.
