Yes that's the married name but what is her maiden surname?
It looks like Indus to me

How old was Frances when she married, please?

Her father was a Corporal in the 47th Foot.  The regiment spent time in Canada in the 1860s.

Brides name has been transcribed as Francesco

On subsequent censuses the couple seem to be using surname Beggs rather than McCormick

I've just checked a death registration for Frances McCormick who was the widow of John Beggs McCormick.

The parents' names are completely different:

Niven Mansfield (soldier) and Frances Mansfield mms Galloway
