The 1881 census doesn't make sense. It says that Samuel 43 is the son of George 53.

Alternatively you could go to freeBMD:

http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/cgi/search.pl

And put:

Marriages Sep 1886 Macclesfield 8a 223

Kenworthy Elizabeth
PRINCE George Edwin

And a request such as:

Can't find them on 1891/1901 census
Can't find their parents

Don't know who their fathers were and haven't got the marriage certificate

etcetera
