OK:

1870 United States Federal Census
Michael Tobin Age in 1870: 38 Birth Year: abt 1832 Birthplace: Ireland
Home in 1870: Newton, Camden, New Jersey
Race: White Gender: Male
Post Office: Gloucester City
Michael Tobin 38 Ireland Oak Cooper
Winiford Tobin 38 Ireland
Maggie Tobin 15 Pennsylvania
Harry Tobin 10
Source Citation: Year: 1870; Census Place: Newton, Camden, New Jersey; Roll: M593_855; Page: 274B; Image: 553; Family History Library Film: 552354.

So 1860 census is them, so if Margaret/Maggie is the older age, marriage by 1853?

The 2nd one is the same as the first one.

Have you tried to find the birth of Maggie for her mother's maiden name?

You asked for an Irish marriage - what makes you think they married in Ireland?

As their children were all, apparently, born in the US, the marriage could just as easily have taken place there
