Frederick MILLHOUSE & Ann Elizabeth HAWKSLEY married in 1877 at the Register Office. Their marriage was included in the Stamford Mercury 23 February 1877.
The record notes that both Frederick & Ann were of St Nicholas'.
The registration of their marriage was in the district of Lincoln [Volume: 7A; Volume as transcribed: 7A; Page number: 697]
What is the correct way to record the location of their marriage and their abode please? Is it Lincoln, Lincolnshire, England [marriage] and abode Lincoln, Lincolnshire, England Parish of st Nicholas? Or is St Nicholas a village or town?

This might help, you need to scroll down to find St. Nicholas:

You record it as St. Nicholas, Lincoln, Lincolnshire (it's a church in Lincoln).

St Nicholas, was a parish in Lincoln see http://www.stnicholaslincoln.org.uk/history/page1/
There is a map of the parish at https://www.familysearch.org/mapp/ under Lincoln.

But they were married at the Register Office. SO surely the Parish is irrelevant.

Thanks lizdb; I also wanted to know how to record their abode at the time of their marriage which is where the St Nicholas comes into play.
