Looking at that 1871 Census, John Allen is not the father-in-law of John Thomas ........ John is entered above John Thomas and that means he is gather-in-law to the Head of the household, William Tanner

You might need to buy William Henry's birth certificate to find out who is named as his father

John
Father's name can be wrong on marriage certificate for several reasons ......
1. Child was illegitimate, and gave a name because it looked better ...... any name could be chosen, eg grandfather, uncle, a well-known person, picked out of the air
2. Child had been raised by a man who married his mother, really believed said man was his father because that was the only man he had knwon
3. Real father had left the family

I was able to find this William Henry Gladden and have found his mother was Emma Allen born Sheerness, I found she married a John Thomas Gladden but not found them together after that however I did find John Thomas Gladden as a Boarder in 1971 living with a family called Tanner also a Boarder was a William Allen ,and it states father in law, so presume this could be William Henrys father, but what has thrown me is that on his marriage to Amelia Cane it states his father is Charles Gladden, occ Carpenter

Could this be his parents marriage (although it's a long time before his birth):-
