If Jane was Louisa's biological mother, she could not have died before the December qtr 1869

The only Jane Leonard death between Dec qtr 1869 and March qtr 1871 was in Hull aged 10

OK I have the BC for  Mary Ann Leonard and her parents are John Leonard and Susanna Leonard formerly Asher.  He was a railway shunter and they lived at 56 Bingfield Street, Islington.  So I have the right people and I think it means that the baptisms featuring John and Jane Leonard in 1870 are not mine.  Not sure why she is shown as Asher, as she had married William Wright and was his widow.  Still no sign of a marriage, but does anyone know where I can find out about railway shunters?
