Many thanks PricklyHolly--not the right one unfortunately-I wonder if the 1857 marriage was a different John Howes. Although their 1st child was born in 1858

Is this the marriage you refer to?

Civil Registration event: Marriage

Name: HOWES, John
Registration district: Woodstock
County: Oxfordshire
Year of registration: 1857
Quarter of registration: Jan-Feb-Mar
Spouse's last name: Not available before 1912
Volume no: 3A
Page no: 681
MarriageFinder: John Howes married one of the following people:

DAVIS, Anna Maria
DAVIS, Anne Maria
TIDMARSH, Maria
HUNT, John

Do you mean the 1871 census shows her to be born in Wootton, not finding them 1861 and in 1851 she wouldn't have had her married name-
