What else do you know?  E.g when and where did she marry? Who were the witnesses at the marriage, if any?  How do you know she was born about 1723, and how do you know she was born in Loughborough?

I found this which has the names of Holt and Henshaw among others, but 16th century which is too early for you at present, though may prove useful sometime, or to others.

The marriage was by Licence - John is said to be a bachelor and aged above 20, Isabella is a spinster and aged 21 and upwards.  Both are said to be of parish of Loughborough.  Images available for the Bond and Allegation on FindMyPast.  The marriage took place at St Martin, Leicester - 26 May 1744 - again the image is on FindMyPast.
