I had a look at the Death Certs etc on a Family Tree.

Something appears askew to me.

Louisa was 99 when she died 1921, so birth c 1822, Father JOHN Poukley
Married at 24, so c 1846
But 1st Child recorded to James/Louisa is Priscilla 1853 in Staffordshire.

I am no Jersey expert, others here are more so than me so may be able to help more.
This is what I have found;

From http://www.theislandwiki.org/index.php/Pouclee
28 Nov 1824 Jean Edouard son of Jean and Anne Le Dain (St Helier)
14 Jan 1827 Anne Elizabeth daughter of Jean and Anne Le Dain (St Helier)
06 May 1829 Henriette Mary daughter of Jean and Anne Le Dain (St Helier)
25 Sep 1831 Louise daughter of Jean and Anne Le Dain (St Helier)
13 Apr 1834 Thomas Nicholas son of Jean and Ann Le Dain (St Helier)
05 Aug 1838 Caroline Esther daughter of Jean and Anne Le Dain (St Helier)
07 Jun 1840 Philippe son of Jean and Anne Le Dain (St Helier)

1841 Jersey Census for that Family;
Ann Pouclă©R, 35
Ann Pouclă©R, 14
Harriet Pouclă©R, 12
LOUISA Pouclă©R, 10*** c 1830
Thomas Pouclă©R, 8
Carolina Pouclă©R, 4
Philip Pouclă©R, 1

My point is the Marriage may be much earlier than c 1851.
Or her age is out on her Death Cert.

Thanks Trish for your help, yes I've noticed the difference in age for Louisa think she was born in 1831. Thanks for your help cheers Murray
