The 1861 census reference that Choccy found and the reference I found are the same record. My transcription came from Ancestry and I am assuming that Choccy's came from find my past or this site.

John Robert Balmer and Samuel Robert Colner are the same person so Mike's assumption on the 1856 marriage is correct.

In view of ...BALMER, James Robert - Father In Law - Widower M 63 1798
Perhaps this is Sarah mistranscribed. or maybe the father in law's name was spelt wrong
