Edwin Coward's Emily was Emily Bown, they married 2q 1855 Shaftesbury 5a 400

I am not sure if that should read Brown, maybe someone else would confirm?

On FamilySearch I have found 3 - THREE - marriage entries for Edwin COWARD and Emily BOWN

1) 3rd June 1855 - was this Banns?
2) 25th June 1855
3) 26th June 1855 - Emily's parents are John and Maria BOWN

Can anyone confirm the 26th June 1855 as the date of marriage?

Hi,

The marriage was 26/06/1855, the writing is terrible but it could be Brown.

Fathers were James Coward (labourer) & John Brown (labourer)
Witnesses ? & Jane Coward
Also can not make out abode (looks like Motcombe).
