Is this the business in 1852?

I now have the marriage certificate. 

It states Henry's father as john Fry - corn factor.  No mother.  it looks like a witness was Thomas Fry.

Very difficult to find anything about John Fry and I think his wife Mary. 

Thanks Leslie

Circumstantial but there's a John Fry b. 1788 East Down nr. Barnstaple

I notice his 2nd. born son was called Richard.
Marr: Richard Fry=Mary Bryant 22/3/1784 E. Down.
Occ: Husbandman.
Wit: Peter Bryant & John Boyle.
All signed.
One for the back burner perhaps.

This baptism matches with father John on marriage

Henry Fry
Birth 15 Mar 1826
Residence   Holland Street
Baptism place   Barnstaple, St Peter
Mother Mary
Father John
Father's occupation   Malster

This is a transcript so source would need checking to confirm that is a birth date as no baptism date mentioned
