Which maiden names are you looking for?

I'm wondering whether William married Eliza Robinson as follows

Marriages Jun 1874
Heaton William Rochdale 8e 27
Robinson Eliza Rochdale 8e 27

The reason why I think this is because Eliza was born in Parbold. In the 1871 census William was a lodger as follows

Name: William Heaton
Age: 18
Estimated birth year: abt 1853
Relation: Lodger
Gender: Male
Where born: Ince, Lancashire, England
Civil Parish: Ince in Makerfield
Ecclesiastical parish: Christchurch
Town: Ince in Makerfield and Manchester Road and Stafford Street
County/Island: Lancashire
Country: England
Registration district: Wigan
Sub-registration district: Hindley
ED, institution, or vessel: 25
Household schedule number: 93
Household Members:
Name Age
William Eaves 30 occ Church Clerk
Catherine Eaves 30 b Parbold
Edward Eaves 7
William Eaves 4
John Eaves 2
William Heaton 18

Catherine Eaves was born in Parbold and this is her marriage

Marriages Mar 1863
EAVES William Wigan 8c 95
ROBINSON Catherine Wigan 8c 95

So perhaps Eliza & Catherine were sisters?

EDIT: 1851 census

Name: Eliza Robinson
Age: 1
Estimated birth year: abt 1850
Relation: Daughter
Father's name: William Robinson
Mother's name: Margaret Robinson
Gender: F (Female)
Where born: Parbold, Lancashire, England

Civil Parish: Parbold
County/Island: Lancashire
Country: England
