I looked up John in 1851 - I think this is him:

I then looked up marrs of John Harvey to a Mary 1851-61 in GLS, SOM. These 3 looked likely
Marriages Dec 1854 (>99%) Dibble Charles Bristol 6a 204 Harvey John Bristol 6a 204 Rich Harriet Bristol 6a 204 Saunders Mary Bristol 6a 204
Marriages Sep 1855 (>99%) HARRIS Mary Clifton 6a 185 HARVEY John Clifton 6a 185 Lewis Henry Clifton 6a 185 Lismore Maria Clifton 6a 185
Marriages Dec 1855 (>99%) CAIN Cornelius Bristol 6a 164 DAVIS Ann Bristol 6a 164 HARVEY John Bristol 6a 164 LETHEREN Mary Bristol 6a 164
I then looked up those Mary's in 1851 - my guess is:

It's a bit flakey - you really need that b.cert.
Once you've gotten that, you can look for the corresponding m.cert, which would have the bride & groom's dads' names.

MGNV - have not been on site since your response, and also not got much further as i have only just got your info now. Thanks very much for all you put on here i will certainly be following up on what you have given to me. Kind Regards.

Lynda - thanks for the update. To tell the truth, I'd forgotten abt this post, but it popped up on the "My threads" tool in the left margin, which I check regularly.
Let me reiterate - you really need that b.cert.
