I can't see anything on FreeReg or Familysearch.

According to this Harriett wasn't married,

1851 : Village, Rowley Regis.
William Bowater, Head , 26 , Coal Miner.
Elizabeth Bowater, Wife, 24, Nailer.
William, Bowater, Son, 5, Scholar.
Sarah, Bowater, Daughter, 2, Scholar Rowley Staffordshire.
Joseph Bowater, Son, 11 Months.
Phillie, Bowater, Daughter, 6, Scholar.
Harriet Smith, Inmate, Unmarried, 53, Nailer.
All Born in Rowley Regis.

Ok so we have 2 marys
this one with mother Harriet...harriet is unmarried
https://www.tribalpages.com/tribe/brows ... =282623497

and then the other mary has father Edward and this mary marries joseph gorton
https://www.tribalpages.com/tribe/brows ... =810321575

so Harriett prob didnt marry Edward and was unmarried in 1851

Edward Smith father of Mary who marries Joseph Gorton may have married a Harriett Dingley
is that right?
