If you look at the Marriage Register of Wootton where Jonathan and Mary Ann married you can see that the incumbent often left out the names and occupations of fathers - on the same page there are two others missing and on the page either side there are marriages with no fathers' details are given at all - I think the lack of this is more indicative of the keeping of the register than Jonathan's knowledge
