Just found a 1816 marriage record for a Mary Culliss in the same church as Maria's baptism. Mary marries a Thomas Francis, doesn't mean he's Maria's father or even if it's the same Mary Culliss, but it does make you wonder?

The first element of the local ref is a code for the church (or subdistrict for Bs and Ds) The second element of the local ref is a register sequence number for that code The third element of the local ref is an entry number or a page number. Marrs usually have an entry number.
S Tyneside has a web page that's a key for decoding their marr locations, but here we're left guessing. C-3 looks like a CofE church, and the registrar's own rego usually begins with an R, but it's W here.
For instance. the modern RD of Wigan & Leigh contains 3 former RDs, Wigan, Leigh and Ince and uses the codes ROW, ROL, ROI. The registrar's own rego's don't just contain rego office marrs. Up to 1898, only C of E, jews and quakers were authorized to keep official marr rego's, so a marr in a non-conformist church would need a registrar (or assistant) to attend with an official marr rego for the couple to sign to complete the ceremony. After 1898, non-conformists could apply to be authorized to keep official marr rego's. Approval could take a couple of years, although RCs chose not to apply until 1980-ish.
Local B & D rego's had 500 entries - 5 per page.
