I see they married in Bristol, Gloucestershire on 9/12/1759 and their children born there too.    So why is this on the Dorset board?

It is on the Dorset board because I think that John Strawbridge was born in Stockland, Dorset.

Is this the entry you are referrring to from familysearch  :-\
Name:   John Strawbridge
Gender:   Male
Birth Date:   1737
Baptism Place:   Stockland, Dorset, England
FHL Film Number:   1239246

This entry appears to be mistranscribed as the film number given relates to Stockland, Devon
https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/results?count=20&query=%2Bfilm_number%3A1239246

There is a possible marriage for him in 1772 transcribed both as Stockland Dorset & Stockland Devon  :-\

The LDS catalogue shows the film number for that entry as 1239246 as shown in my other post - this is what the catalogue says
Items 1 - 4: Bishop's transcripts for Stockland, 1731-1836
Author:   Church of England. Parish Church of Stockland (Devonshire)

As I mentioned there is a marriage in Stockland that could be that John Strawbridge  :-\ 

Why do you think this is your John

Firstly I still don't understand why you think 'mistranscribed'?

I don't know which baptism date relates to the John Strawbridge in my tree!!!!! All I know for sure is that a John Strawbridge and a Jane Skull married and are in my tree.
