I found this on the BVRI on familyhistoryonline and wondered if anyone could enlarge on the entry please? Is it likely to mention fathers (or anything else useful) so I can narrow it down a bit  :-\

Unfortunately no parental details were given.

The bride and groom were 'spinster' and 'bachelor' both of 'this parish'.

The witnesses were Richard Martin, and R. G. Akers, the latter possibly a church official of some sort, as his signature appears as a witness to many of the marriages.
