I could order Ann's marriage cert too. But marriage cert will not give me her mother's name; will give me father's occupation, though, and Ann Jackson married 6 Aug 1836 so I might see if it still says her father is a clothier (if he's not retired and listed simply as "gentleman", or deceased).
Civil registration started 1 July 1837 so unfortunately you won't be able to get a copy of Ann's birth cert as one won't exist.

A marriage for 1836 will be in a different format to post 1 July 1837 ones, so an 1836 entry would give the bride & groom, the parishes they lived at the time of marriage, whether they were a bachelor, spinster, widow, widower (tho some I have don't give this), whether the marriage was by banns or licence & the names of the witnesses.
