Good on you Gerry!
I had no success in searching there for the marriage, but the trick must have been in the surname spelling

Bevcal
 How old was Edward at marriage please?
Does he state Maurice and Sarah as his parents?
Where was his usual place of residence at marriage?

Glad to hear the research has been in the right direction.
