Well, not that wrong as the marriage between Eliza Fairbrass and William Maunder is also on the LMA records and that has her as a 24 year old widow (six years after she was aged 21!) the dau of Humphrey Enoch, weaver. The marriage was 2nd June 1850 at St Peter's, Walworth in the parish of St Mary, Newington. Their address, Pitt Street, Newington, is on the marriage cert for both of them and is the same on the 1851 census.

Of course I have been a dumbo about the children thing, as in 1851 they had Emma aged 2 and I was thinking she was William Maunder's child, but she was actually Samuel Fairbrass's child! Whoops. She isn't with them aged 12 though.
