My great, great , great grandfather, Joseph Wilson was born in Cockerton, Darlington, County Durham in about 1801 and Married a Elizabeth Martin in I believe Cowton, Yorks in about 1824. I have tried to find out how to get a copy of the marriage from Parish Records but I haven't been able to find out how to get a copy of the marriage details. I know that Joseph married Elizabeth because I have their son's birth certificate (Robinson Wilson) who was my great, great grandfather. Can anyone advise me on how I can acquire this information.

Many thanks,
Doreen.
