I recognized this as an entry from Family Search (IGI) as I have checked into it before.
Below are some (edited) particulars from the Family Group Records:

John MARSHALL (AFN: PDTM-ZQ)
Birth: Abt. 1597 Wisbeche
Death: Abt 1722

Has two daughters Rose (particulars below) and Frances

Rose MARSHALL (AFN: 8J35-7K)
Birth: ABOUT 1623 Wisbeche, Cambridge, England
Death: 1722
Spouse: Isaac DEGGE (AFN: 8J35-6D)
Marriage: BEFORE 1645 , , , England

Isaac DEGGE (AFN: 8J35-6D)
Birth: 8 Dec 1619 Nantwich, England
Christening: 3 Dec 1619 Uttoxeter, Stafford, Eng.
Death: 1687 Of Nantwich, Cheshire, Eng.
Parents:
Father: Thomas DEGGE (AFN: 8J35-B3) Family
Mother: Dorothy CRITCHLOW (AFN: 8J35-C8)

Word of warning, the above is from the IGI, which is far from being correct

There is only one likely candidate that I have collected so far, and that is Rose Marshall
the daughter of John (a Gent) & Alice, and baptised the 13th of November 1629 at Wisbech
St. Peter. Who ever submitted this information on the Family Group Records, must have had
some evidence to indicate that the bride came from across country, I would be interested
in knowing the source. The mentioning of "Wisbeche" could mean Wisbech or any of the other
parishes that lay in the Hundred of Wisbech, or the parishes in the hundred of Freebridge
Marshland(excluding the parishes North and South Lynn, (Clenchwarton ?)) and the parishes
of Outwell, Upwell and Welney to the south.

Apart from Wisbech, the other major district towns around are Lynn and Downham to the east
(Norfolk), March and Thorney to the south west (Cambridgeshire) and Holbeach to the north
east (Lincolnshire).
