Could be they never married but just lived together.  You would be surprised how often this scenario comes up.

Did they have children?  If so you can check the birth registration(s) to find out the mothers maiden name.

If I have the correct family they did have several children but some are older than a marriage in 1882.

Clara Elizabeth Sep 1889
Alice May Dec 1886
Charles Dec 1884
John William Jun 1883

all have mothers maiden name Barker

Not sure where the oldest 2 boys come from though - David c1878 and Edward c1880

William is single in 1881 - can we see Elizabeth and/or the two boys in 1881?  Birthplace for the boys is Arnold Yorkshire
