Is there anything on the 1851 census as if i have the right marriage then they wed in 1849. Regards

Do you mean Patrick Foley in 1851?
According to the 1861 census Anne 'Dolly' was 25, so, if the correct family she was about 14 when she married?
Do you believe they married in Ireland or England?

One of these marriages?
Marriages Dec 1849
