Something not quite right here. You say Henry was born 1865 and Louisa 1829? Later you say they had a son in 1865.

I am trying to find a marriage between a
Henry Hughes born 1865 shropshire
and a
Louisa Gardiner born 1829 oxford
I know they lived in the same household in 1861 in marylebone london she was a widow with her own children and he was living there with his mother.
in 1881 the census shows them as married but when?
they had a son in 1865 called arthur.so I assume they ware married around that time.

I have spent days looking but I may need someone who knows what they are doing
please help
