Yes, Julie, it's fantastic. I have also just viewed the marriage of his parents at Lincoln St Martin in 1750, and it very helpfully states that they were both of the parish of Hemswell, which means I have the correct baptism for Joseph Wood. I need to find the baptism of his wife, Ann Newbo(u)rn now.
FMP has their marriage allegation:
Year: 1750
Groom Forenames: Joseph
Groom Surname: WOOD
Groom's parish: From elsewhere
Groom's condition: Single
Groom's age: 28
Bride Forenames: Ann
Bride Surname: NEWBORN
Bride's parish: From elsewhere
Bride's condition: Single
Bride's age: 28
Place of marriage: Lincoln St Martin
Diocese: Lincoln
Country: England
Checked: Y
Notes:
RO Reference: MB 1750/189
Record source: Lincolnshire Marriage Licence Bonds and Allegation
Data provider: Lincolnshire Family History Society
However, the parish register shows that the "elsewhere" is in fact Hemswell!
