Could this be Amos's marriage (no middle name given):-

Name: Amos Nunn
Year of Registration: 1905
Quarter of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec
District: Wakefield
County: Yorkshire - West Riding, West Yorkshire
Volume: 9c
Page: 86

Also on the page is Elizabeth Williams Hanson (extra name given).

If this could be the marriage then the certificate would hopefully give you Elizabeth's father's name and occupation.
