I had already posted that marriage above and another with father William, but Frances doesn't think they are correct- I'm not sure all the information has been looked at though.
Again for ref:
Marriage: Father listed as William
name(s) William Wells (confectioner) Age 22 Marriage date 1882 Marriage place York Father's name(s) William Wells (brush maker) Spouse's name(s) Amy Poole Spouse's age 19 Spouse's birth date 1863 Spouse's father's name(s) Thomas Poole Residence York, Yorkshire, England
Above marriage not correct- that is for this William:

Is this 1881 census your family Frances? Can I ask why you don't think the William Wells/ Annie Louisa Hawkins marriage is correct?

Sorry, AQ - I hadn't noticed your earlier post about the two marriages.

Hi all again, marriage certificate for William c.1860 to Annie Elizabeth Taylor gives father's name as Daniel so wannabe cousin is, after one day, no longer a cousin so my William Wells 1860 is obviously the other one and I need to go through all your posts again to see who my William 1960 actually married! Annie Louisa Hawkins is now favourite but as we are being back to William being only the brother to my grandfather Walter the heat is off! Again thanks for all your help and I will now go to sleep happy thinking Annie Louisa Hawkins is the lucky lady!

Not sure what you mean about William being the only brother to Walter? What about Alfred?
It would help if you could confirm if the 1881 census posted is your family (parents William and Mary J).

Thank you EricaH, that is my William, whom I have now determined was born March 1860 and, it would appear from the census, that he and Annie Louisa had no children.
