Sarah Lewis shows as marrying a George L Simons at Newport Shropshire in 1913.Is there anything showing on this marriage?

Which area did they live in at the time of their marriage to help determine a possible church?

The Sarah Lewis is really the interest here.She died in 1973 giving a birthyear of 1883 but I can find very little on her origins.

Unless there are two couples with exactly the same names this marriage was also registered in the 1st Qtr. 1913 in Wrexham

Too much of a coincidence there. George Lichfield Simons was born Wolverhampton 1885 died Wrexham 1962 aged 76 (1886)
However - a George L Simons died 1918 Warwickshire aged 32 (1886)
I can also see a birth reg for George Leslie Simons in 1886 Aston
No probate entry for either

A tree on Anc* has the marriage taking place on 2 June 1913 Newport.
The tree also has George passing away in 1962
