Do you have their marriage certificate, which hopefully names their fathers.?

Marriages Sep 1849
Glover Joseph ..Medway 5 430
Green Hannah ..Medway 5 430

Joseph Glover was my great, great grandfather born in about 1818/19 in Cornwall. He married Hannah Green, a widow, in 1849 and they lived in Sheerness, Kent where Joseph was a 'Seaman Rigger'. I can find no information about Joseph's parents, etc.; can anyone help, please?
