Spin off from - Evans and Harvey Marriage for Mally

Requested a look up for marriage of Agnes and Joseph, asking for her father if stated, if not did it give mother as Prudence?

Linell kindly obliged...

Marriage: 16.9.1889 St Giles, Rowley Regis
Joseph Evans 23 bach Tividale Painter - Father:Jon Evans Painter
Agnes Harvey 21 sp Tividale - Father: Charles Knowles Harvey Collier
Witnesses were Wm and Elizabeth Taylor

I have her mother as Prudence Harvey who married Charles Knowles in 1873, 5 yrs after Agnes was born.

Why would he be Charles Knowles Harvey on the parish records? ...Here's the link

...or am I being stupid and the Harvey refers to her mothers maiden name? :?

Perhaps the person doing the writing asked "Name of father?" and she said "Charles Knowles" and they took it to mean first and middle names since she was Harvey?

mmmm....that's a thought Gardener but another error?
This marriage info is a bit of a mish mash isn't it - wrong occupation for groom and his father and wrong name for Brides father :?

Tree on Ancestry (Barrett-Chalk Family Tree) has:

William Harvey - Birth May 1814 in Quinton, Worcestershire, England
Death 1884 in Oldbury, Worcestershire, England
Mary Hazlewood - Birth bef Mar 1814 in Halesowen, Worcestershire, England
Death Q3 1894 in West Bromwich, Worcestershire, England

William Harvey & Mary Hazlewood m. 8 Sep 1833 at St. Thomas, Dudley
Children:
Phebe Harvey 1839 -
Matilda Harvey 1840 -
George HARVEY 1841 - 1911
Prudence Harvey 1846 -
Joseph Harvey 1847 -
Mary Harvey 1849 -
Patience Harvey 1856 -

They quote the 1841, 1851, 1861, 1881 census.
Like me, they don't seem to have found any trace of the Harveys or Knowles in 1871.

There are ancestors there for both William and Mary.
