A complicated answer. The Single was never releaseed in the UK or US, but internationally, like in Austria, Switzerland, Australia and Japan, where it did go to #1 in 11/22/1968. The Marmalade cover version came out after but was released in the UK and Norway (where The Beatles never released a single of that) and reached #1.

So, the answer to your question is The Beatles were the original number one globally, unless you just count the UK or Norway, in which case, Marmalade was the first #1 by default.
