Andrew Butcher (1773 -1838) Eldersfield (General)

I'm searching for any information on Andrew Butcher (1773-1838)prior to his marriage.

He Married May Millard at Corse in 1800 (The only entry in FOD records)

Died 1838 and buried at Eldersfield.

His wedding details list him as of the parish of Eldersfield but I can find no trace of him in the Eldersfield registers prior to his marriage. His descendants lived in the Corse, Hartpury, Ashleworth, Eldersfield area which is not only right on the border of the FOD area but also straddles the Gloucestershire/Worcestershire border as well.

His family surname from 1840's onward became BOUCHER which is the French version of Butcher so unsure if he was a Boucher who became Butcher thanks to a French speaking parson or visa versa.

Any help Much appreciated
