Have found an image of the marriage certificate on Ancestry.

John is shown as aged 24 a Hair Dresser of Bath Street, son of Bladud Cuzner a Clothier.

Perhaps Harriet knocked a couple of years off her age as he was younger than her?

Have you found them after their marriage on census at all?

Pamela

Pamela Report 30 Aug 2017 20:31

Thank you to everyone I will work through theses I know that Keyford Street is given as Harriets address on her marriage certificate so looks like 1861 census is her. The age given for Harriet on the marriage certificate was 26. Thank you again Kind Regards Pam

Milton Regis is a village in the district of Swale in Kent, England. Former names include Milton-next-Sittingbourne, Milton Royal, Middleton, Midletun and Middletune. It has a population of about 5,000. Today it is a suburb of Sittingbourne although this has not always been the case, Milton Regis has the older and richer history. Until around 1800 Sittingbourne was a smaller hamlet and under the control of the Manor of Milton Regis.

As the marriage of Stephen and Mary was in Milton and her age was given as 52 on the 1841 census - a possibility for Mary Barrett. Place of birth not given on the 1841 census other than "born in county"
