Certificate reading help, please

[Aulus]

Can anyone help me decipher the names of the first two witnesses on this marriage certificate, please?  Not the best of GRO copies, I'm afraid.

Thomas B[owden??]  The bride's first husband was called Thomas Bowden, so it could be her father-in-law, but it doesn't look the same as the Bowden in her name.
Elizabeth B[oong...??]
Eliza Jones

Do you agree that the bride's father's occupation is "yeoman"?  Isn't that a bit of an anachronistic term in the 1850s?

Thanks in advance for any insights.

Hi Aulus,

Is it Thomas Bowden and Elizabeth Broughton ?

Regards,

Hi there,
I've got Edward Guest of full age, Chemist, father:  Charles Guest, Captain in the Army

married Margaret Bowden of full age, father: William Semen, Yeoman (probably meaning yeoman (free) farmer and could have owned his farm).  I'd look for a will.

Witnesses: Thomas Bowden, Eliza Jones.  I believe the person who wrote out this certificate made a mistake and the other witness was
Elizabeth Boughton/Broughton/Houghton

Best of Luck,
Rena

Thanks everyone.

Broughton looks most likely I think.

Rena: the bride's maiden name is Lemon.  Her marriage to Thomas Bowden is on the IGI and I've just found them on the 1851 census in Clifton (HO107/1952; Fol. 196; p. 24) - Margaret is from Northam in Devon.
