Hi I have just joined and would be really grateful if anyone out there could help me I have been stuck for a long time trying to find the marriage of my great grandparents Benjamin Woodhouse and Phebe Bennitt

I have found them on the 1851 census showing as married and living with Phebe's mother Sophia Bennitt and prior to that they were each living as single with there respective parent/parents so I suspect they married circa 1850.

I would really love some help on this one.
