William & Ann's marriage will be before the onset of Civil Registration, so you will need Parish Registers for their marriage?

But birth Registrations:
GOSS, HARRIETT        BUTLER      
GRO Reference: 1839  M Quarter in BARNSTAPLE UNION  Volume 10  Page 37

GOSS, MARY  ANN      BUTLER        
GRO Reference: 1841  J Quarter in BARNSTAPLE UNION  Volume 10  Page 28

Giving Mother's Maiden Name as Butler.

There is a John Goss born 1879 Swansea in the 1881 census, parents Henry and Mary.  Siblings James, William and Elizabeth.  Address is 5, Miers Street, Swansea St Thomas, Swansea

It may be best to obtain the marriage cert for John to Mary Kneath to ascertain John's age and his father's name and occupation.

Although with both father's called Henry could prove a little troublesome!  Perhaps witnesses on the marriage cert may clarify matters.
