As her maiden name shows as Swaine on the GRO site, but she has a 14 year old daughter surname of Moore, then maybe there was a previous marriage for her

Surname First name(s) District Vol Page
Marriages Jun 1894 (>99%)
Moore Martha Bradford, Y. 9b 87
Sloane George Charles Bradford, Y. 9b 87

This would appear to be that first marriage -

Your best line of research would be to find his birth on the GRO site, which will give you MMN (if the parents were married)

Here it is:

SLOANE, ENOCH SWAINE
GRO Reference: 1896 J Quarter in BRADFORD Volume 09B Page 54


1901 England, Wales & Scotland Census
6, Pawson Street, Bradford, Yorkshire & Yorkshire (West Riding), England
Martha Sloane Head Widow Female 34 1867 Laundress Bradford, Yorkshire, England
Olive Ann Moore Daughter - Female 14 1887 Machine cleaner Bradford, Yorkshire, England
David Sloane Son - Male 6 1895 - Bradford, Yorkshire, England
Enoch Sloane Son - Male 4 1897 - Bradford, Yorkshire, England

The mother must have been married previously - hence the daughter's surname in 1901

Marriages Jun 1894 (>99%)
Moore Martha Bradford, Y. 9b 87
Sloane George Charles Bradford, Y. 9b 87

Marriages Sep 1885 (>99%)
MOORE Alfred Bradford, Y. 9b 140
Swaine Martha Bradford, Y. 9b 140
