Could you copy over the 1871 census, please?

Added:
I do not understand your comment about the marriage certificate.
It should give you the name of the father, which will help to eliminate many possible men of his name.

Added;
if this is the marriage, then he has an additional name;
Marriages Dec 1860
Davies Shula Oswestry 6a 1357
xxx Griffiths Elizabeth Oswestry 6a 1357
Pugh John Oswestry 6a 1357
