Let's hope that I am right  :)
Transcriptions and NBI are merely finding aids.  They are NOT a substitute for original record entries.

A little bit more for you:

Burial - Howden - 30 July 1848 - George Holmes aged 33

Marriage - Howden - 9 September 1849
Mark Nutbrown, full age, widower, Husbandman of Howden.  Father:  Mark, Shoemaker
Rachel Holmes, full age, widow of Howden.  Father: William, Labourer

1851 Census - HO107 2358 folio 273, page 16
Hailgate, Howden
Mark Nutbrown - 46, widower - Ag Lab
Ann Nutbrown - 20 - daughter
plus housekeeper with her children

I can't see Rachel in 1851, nor can I see a death in England and Wales prior to 1851 census!

Perhaps you do need to purchase Lucy's birth certificate to confirm or refute our assumptions.  I'm assuming that it is still your aim to ascertain her parentage.  I can't readily see a baptism for her, certainly via the Church of England records available on FindMyPast and Ancestry.

Thanks, will have to do when I get the chance.
