Look for the marriage ref in freebmd, only one Mary Ann on that page.
Not proof positive, but strong possible.

Coleman    Mary Ann       
Meakins    Charlotte           
Meakins    Henry        
Taylor    George

The Potterspury marriage registers for this period are still at the Church so you would need to either order a certificate from the Superintendent Registrar or write to the Churchwarden.

Thank you all for your help. I have been finding it difficult as the names have been so common. I think Coleman is the right name as I found Henry Meakins and Mary Ann Coleman as witnesses to a family wedding a couple of years before their wedding.

The Coleman surname sounds good!!!

Henry Meakins married Mary Ann Coleman, in the Mar quarter 1871.
