Although Charles's wife's name doesn't appear when you search for a marriage for him as Littlebury, if you search for him as Littleberry, it does.


Marriages Sep 1877 (>99%)
KNIGHT Annie Bethnal Green 1c 535
LITTLEBERRY Charles W Bethnal Green 1c 535

The Littlebury entry is a handwritten addition at the bottom of the Index page.
