That marriage in Marylebone is not the one you seek, the marriage cert is on Ancestry and the fathers name is George Hall, so this rules that one out for defo.

1871 Sarah Cain b. 1854 was living at 9 Simpson Tce, Newcastle. Mary Hall Signey, her aunt was the head of the household. Sarah was under the name of Sarah Ellen Hall.

This is info supplied by my cousin Catherine who thinks that William Cain born c.1829 was in the merchant navy 1845 - 1854 but she can't remember where she saw this info.

Thanks for that Wendy. I'm unsure myself about the navy thing but it's worth a look.
