I have in my Bodger/Wright tree James Bodger b24/4/1831 marriage to Naomi Fairey 1859 ref St Neots, 1859 vol 3b page 467 quarter unknown. She was born 1835 Easton, died 1880 in Emerdale (or Eversdale) Victoria, Australia. They had one child, a son, John Charles William Fairey Bodger, b 1875 Eversdale, Victoria, Australia. Baptised in Carngham Church. James and Naomi lived in Aldershot, Hants on the 1861 Census, he was a shoemaker, she a Milliner. In 1865 they emigrated to Australia, James's sister Sarah was already out there, in Carngham, married to John Saunders Wright. James and his son returned to England after Naomi's death. He lived with Joseph Wright on his return then remarried to Ann.
Hope this fills in a bit of detail for you.

I have a William Green marriage to Susannah Stokes 19/1/1790. Susannah b23/1/1763 Hartford, Hunts. The Stokes fit into my Bodger/Wright tree as Mary Stokes, her sister, married John Wright, 1/11/1791, but haven't details about William's family of Greens.

I have marriage St Neots district 1859 to Charles Bodger b 1831 Graffham to Naomi Fairey, b Easton 1835 married St Neots district. They lived in Aldershot, emigrated to Australia, had one child John Charles William Fairey Bodger. She died in 1880 Eversdale, Victoria, Australia. Charles and son returned to England. Naomi's mother was Thomasin Voss, born Lawson but prob daughter of John Dixon. Thomasin married Richard Voss. Eventually as a widow emigrated to Kansas, America with 3 children. Another son, brother of Naomi went to Australia and another to New Zealand. I have no information who Naomi's father was, a Fairey, presumably born before Thomasin married Richard Voss. I can't link Fairey's into my Bodger/Wright tree as no details of her father.
