Toby - re your different spellings.

Is one a parish register entry, and the other the bishop's transcript?

I came across a case which had the same date and bride - but the BT had a different groom!

I have given myself a firm rap on the knuckles!

I relied on looking under "All Record Sets" and the listed number of entries for combined baptisms, marriages and burials comes to 1,550,746.

However, if you search the three sets, without any search terms, you get a total of 3,620,874.

An updated coverage list would be helpful.
