1851 entry shows his father as James so not the same as 1866 marriage

Yes I spotted that, but the location, occupation and mother's maiden name of the Alice Bennett registered in Shoreditch around the right time all pointed to that marriage. Maybe an error on the register?

Oh thanks for that, I didn't see your message last night. I saw the Heycock marriage too and believed it was possible all considering but then noticed the father's surname, it's interesting as the writing of Tudor and Thomas is the surname but yet seems too much of a conincidence for the occupation etc... I think I'll have to give Elizabeth Heycock/Acock some more reserch
