Is there anyone who may be able to find me a marriage reference for:

Ambrose Fills and Ann. The census records I have found are:

1841 Census: Seend, Melksham
Ambrose Fillis 1801 (40) Born Wiltshire
Ann Filis 1896 (45)
Harriet Fillis 1830 (11) Born Wiltshire
Jos Fillis 1824 (17) Born Wiltshire

1851 Census: Seend Melksham
Ambrose Fillis 1799 (52) Head. Dealer in Iron
Ann Fillis 1797 (60) Born Ireland (Wife)

With thanks

George

There won't be a reference for a marriage certificate as the marriage was before civil registration began.
