They were married in Dec Q of 1868 in Mile End Old Town, Middlesex... I know from the 1881 Census that his Wife's first name is Mary. Any help would be greatfully appreciated! Many many thanks!

Hi Angie I see from the 1881 census that they have a 17 year old daughter making a marriage in 1868 unlikely, there is a Henry Branch marriage to Mary Ann Amelia Linderman in 2nd quarter 1862 Mile end old town. Could you be mistaken in the marriage date. Gail.
