Hi All,
Is there anyone who can point me in the right direction with this couple as I am struggling to understand where I go next.

What I think I know
Maria Goode -

Marriage Certificate
Married Edwin Chinery, March 12th 1866 age 30, no residence listed so assume same as husband - Woolpit, father George Goode Labourer. Witnesses Robert Green(?) and Elizabeth Chinery.

Census -
1881 - not living with children and not found - possibly died
1871 - Woolpit, Suffolk DOB abt 1835 age 36, married born Harlestone
1861 - New Street, Haughley, Suffolk (I know this address to be correct as it is listed on son George William Goode birth cert) Age 24 DOB abt 1837 Harlestone
1851 - New Street, Haugley Suffolk DOB abt 1837 age 14 Harlestone
1841 - Harlestone Age 4 DOB abt 1837 spelt Mariah

Parents on Census - George Goode and Elizabeth

Possible deaths - Searched for Maria Chinery DOB 1837 +/-2 years Suffolk = 21 results but only 2 in Stow 1879 or 1911 - is there a way to eliminate one of these?

Birth - not really found anything for a Maria Goode. The only thing I have found is a baptism for a Ann Maria Goode 12/02/1837 Halston Suffolk parents George and Elizabeth. I have no idea what to do pre registration is it likely that this Ann is my Maria or am I going down the wrong path as this is all I can find? Where do I start pre registration especially when to visit the actual documents is not easily possible as I am located a very long way from the records.?

Not found any other information

Edward/Edwin Chinery
Marriage Certificate - Name Edwin
Married Maria Goode, March 12th 1866 age 52, Painter, Woolpit, father Very bad copy so GRO emailed to say fathers name appears to be Pattle Chinery Soldior . Witnesses Robert Green(?) and Elizabeth Chinery.

Census -
1881 - not with children - possibly died?
1871 - Name Edward, Woolpit, Suffolk DOB abt 1810 age 61 or could be Age 67 DOB abt 1804. Wetherden Suffolk.

Unable to find anything further

The only other info I have on him is some newspaper articles -
- Bury and Norwich Post 01/08/1871 - Drunk and Riotous in Woolpit Edwin Chinery Woolpit, Painter sentenced 7 days inprisonment
- Bury and Norwich Post 18/08/1874 - Edwin Chinery Assault at Woolpit 6 weeks
- Bury Free Press Disorderly conduct Edwin Chinery Woolpit 7 days
- Bury and Norwich Post 17/07/866 - Drunk and Disorderly Edward Chinery Painter of Woolpit fined 5and8 costs or 7 days imprisonment
Bury and Norwich Post 23/06/1868 Drunkenness Edward Chinery painter or Woolpit (failed to attend last week) prison for 7 days
- Bury and Norwich Post 16/08/1864 - Drunk and disorderly Edward Chinery Woolpit Fine 5 and costs.

After this I am totally stuck but seems like a bit of a trouble soul

Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks.
