I see that the marriage was in Wrexham district, Dec qtr 1855.

Have you looked for her in the censuses before that?

I can find her on the 1851 Wales census age 15 but she is a house servant and not listed with parents

Yes, have seen that entry in Leeswood which looks a likely match, her birthplace given on this occasion as Tryddyn.  Also in service in the same household are other Edwards who may provide a clue (one or both possibly siblings?):

Sarah Edwards, 26 b Tryddyn
George Edwards, 13 b Mold

She died in 1916 age 81 according to Find A grave so would have only been 5 on the 1841 census and not 15.

Unfortunately Leeswood, Mold, Nerquis and Tryddyn are all known to be wholly or partly missing from the surviving 1841 census.
