First reply was from ancestry transcription.
Looked at the image Essex Record Office
Number 624 in register
Banns were read 17,24 September and 1 October 1780
Both were single of the parish, both made their mark
Witnesses, Richard Whitehand, Ann? Edwards, Ann Moyse.

Richard Whitehand may be the parish clerk as he signs several others on the page, but the other witnesses may prove useful.
