Just read an article in this weeks Bugle page 9 entitled 'My Great Grandparents were wed for 71 years'
There is a great photo of them both too...

Marriage 1883
SMART Delila GUEST Daniel Dudley, St James Dudley Register Office 202/009/302

here they are in 1911...

36 Union St, Netherton, Dudley
Daniel Guest 47 setter & Drawer
Delilah Guest 47 Married 26 years - children 9/7/2
Sophia Guest 22 Dau Single Brush Maker
Henry Guest 16 Son Coal Miner Under Ground, Pony Driver In Coal Pit
William Richard Guest 8 Son
Elsie May Guest 5 mths Dau
(all born Netherton)

I've requested a look up for that marriage to see if they connect to anyone on BCC

Hi mallosa,
Also saw article and their daughter Bertha Guest married Herbert Brooks Pardoe in 1909 ( he is on bcc)
Delilah Smart looks like daughter of Daniel Smart born 1825 and Mary Ann Williams
Daniel Smart in turn looks like son of James Smart born 1803 and Eliza Flavell ( on bcc)

Their son Richard Henry Guest married Elizabeth Deeley born 1888 ( on bcc)

So a lot of potential connections
