Here's that marriage:

Name: Edith A Jeffs + William J Wellington
Year of Registration: 1915
Quarter of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec
District: Neath (1837-1970)
County: Breconshire, Glamorgan
Volume: 11a
Page: 2083

Maybe different people, maybe Cyril's real name?

Not seeing any William Wellingtons born in the 1880s in the Sheffield vicinity in the GRO, though.
