Is there a way to figure out where she was for the 1861 census?

You forgot to mention when and where she was born. I spent far too long looking for a Mary, but eventually discovered the marriage index entry says her first name was Frances!!

I see from the death record she was born about 1828/9. Unfortunately, I can't find her in 1851 for her birthplace.

I saw the names Clark Ogilvie on a baptism at Newport Pagnell Bucks in 1830, so presume that is her. She was 18 at the 1848 marriage.

Found them in 1851 now, to confirm her birthplace (under Monie on Ancestry)

Here she is in 1861 on FMP. I would probably never have found her on Ancestry because I wouldn't have looked in the separate Scottish census!:
