So it appears from Andrew's post that son Samuel was born to Harriet Newey before marriage, if indeed marriage took place. This seems to be him on 1871 census:

Have you looked on freebmd for the marriage

If you want help you need to give more than names

Birth years ,area etc are a good start plus any other info you know on the persons being looked for

We don't know the people or any family info to try and help
