Could someone please help me find them in 1861.

On 29th Oct 1860 Fanny Thompson c1835 Dawley, Shropshire married Joseph Heath in Dawley Magna Shropshire. I have tried but I cannot find them in 1861. To be honest I've not found them in any census. Hoping someone can help.

How old was Joseph at time of marriage and what was his occupation. These should be noted on marriage certificate.

I only found the marriage details tonight on the LDS so I only have the details BeverleyW has posted. I don't have his age or occupation.

Can anyone please give me any tips on how to find this couple in the 1861 census.

Although Fanny is not my direct line, her brother Mark is and I have certificates/parish records proving I'm right with that line, I'd love to find his siblings in the census. I've not found a death for either of them in 1861.
