The marriage.

Marriages Dec 1855
JINKS George Wolverhampton 6b 635
LEWIS Aplianna Wolverhampton 6b 635

You wont get a birth cert for her as she is pre civil registration time.

You will need to find her baptism or find her on earlier census with parents for their names.

But this marriage cert would help.
