The IGI Contributed shows such a marriage to Francis Brown, but it doesn't appear as an Indexed entry.  This may be one of the entries lost a few years ago when the LDS started to clean up the IGI by deleting duplicate entries. In their wisdom they deleted the Indexed entries rather than the contributed entries.

Morning.... from Podington PR transcript...

Marriage 25 Oct 1801 Francis Brown to Ann Brown, both of Podington

Baptisms 20 Jul 1802 St Jn son of Francis & Ann Brown
              8 Sept 1805 Thomas son of Francis & Ann Brown(e)
              11 Mar 1808 Henry son of Francis & Ann Brown
               9 Apr 1809 James son of Francis & Ann Brown

              17 Jun 1810 Henry & James, sons of Fra & Ann Brown **

Burial 17 Jun 1810 Francis Brown, labourer

** cannot see burials of a 'first' Henry & James Brown, so maybe they got rebaptised at burial of father??

Cheers John

Marriage at Podington

30 Jul 1798 Thomas Brown, widower to Sarah Knoulton/Knowlton, widow

Suspect she's the wife of Thomas Knowlton who was buried at Podington on 26 Jan 1792
PR says 'who lost his way as he was coming from Wymington on the 22nd in the evening and perished in the fields'
