The Nuneaton entry is here incorrectly:

Marriages Dec 1862
Bricknell Sarah Coventry 6d 552
Heydon William Foleshill 6d 552
Jephcote Martha Nuneaton 6d 552
Shephard Mary Foleshill 6d 552
Smith William Foleshill 6d 552

I agree, can't see her 1871. I might be inclined to get the marriage cert.

I have a Mary Shephard b. abt 1842 Foleshill. (9 on 1851, 18 on 1861 censuses). I cannot locate her on 1871 census so looked for a marriage. I have found a marriage on Freebmd registered Foleshill 1862 but there are 5 names listed - 3 female and 2 male. I noted down the name of the two males - William Heydon and William Smith. I also found on the Warwickshire Pink Pages a marriage at St. Lawrence Foleshill of a Mary Shephard to a William Heydon so assumed I was on the right path. However, I still cannot find a Mary Heydon on 1871 census in order to establish any family she may have had. Any brilliant ideas of what to do next ? Thanks.
