They  may  have married  in a Registry office ,  so    buying  the  cert may be the  only  way  to  find  out

Hi
Here's the wife in 1841 Back Lane Stalbridge
Samuel Parsons 30 mason y
Rhoda 35 y
Peniannah 9 y
Samuel Lionel 5 y
Ann Jemima 1 y

So if they married in the bride's parish it should be Stalbridge.

  image    states  49 years married  ,    and immigration   year  to  US  as 1851   Tree  on Ancestry  has   Peninnah    marrying  Isaac  in 1851     their  first  child being born  in 1852   in PA

Tree  on Ancestry  has   Peninnah    marrying  Isaac  in the USA     their  first  child being born  in 1852   in PA

The tree owner has assumed marriage in USA on basis of 1900 US census which just says they married in 1851.

Pennsylvania Death Certificate says : Peninnah West b 19 Feb 1830 England d 19 Mar 1909 McKeesport , Allegheny , Pennsylvania . Parents Sam'l Parsons and Rhoda.

Samuel Parsons married Rhoda Elford 7 Nov 1831 Stalbridge. I can't find Peninnah in the Dorset Baptisms , although her siblings are listed , but there is this in England Births and Christenings :

Purinnah Mellina Parsons bap 16 Mar 1832 Stalbridge , Samuel & Rhoda Parsons.

Now found the baptism in the Stalbridge register , as above except Melina is crossed out and I read the name as Peninnah not Purinnah.( transcribed by A as Melsena Parsons )
