If you check the GRO indexes for the children of Joseph and Mary Whalley, her maiden name is given as Peet, not Pink.

In 1851 there is a Mary Peet dau of George Peet b Orrell about 1838, so her details do match those of Mary Whalley, but not the marriage Allan found.

Having said that, I can't see a marriage between Mary Peet and Joseph Whalley, so perhaps she is a red herring?
