What is his surname? Can you find the marriage in freebmd?
If not you will have to post the parts that you cant read (you will anyway for the occupation) if you want us to try and decipher them!

From my transcription parish registers of Pembroke St Mary 1711 to 1050’s. There are 5 William Johns married at St Mary during the period 1840 to 1845. The one you appertain to is as follows
09 Apr 1842 William John of Full aged a bach and joiner of the Dock the son of Thomas John a Joiner married Elizabeth Reese of full age a spinster of the Dock the daughter of James Reese a Sawyer by banns in front of W. Bowling. William signed his name and Elizabeth made her mark in the presence of Wm Lifton and George Froyne
(Note George Froyne was Parish Clerk at this time)
