I'm glad you agree, maybe SP will reveal the marriage date on one of the children's birth certs.

I have a female relative who's age varies considerably, she's 20 years older than her husband and rarely gets her age right on her marriage cert or any of the census once she's married. It's odd that Margaret changes her name to Mary on the 1871 census. I couldn't find Samuel in 1861 or Margaret after 1871.

Added: I did wonder if her age had been incorrectly transcribed!

Good luck with the search.
