Henry (aka Joseph Henry) and Mary are Albert's parents:

Albert's birth (probably already posted):

LEES, ALBERT HENRY mms MASON
GRO Reference: 1865 S Quarter in STAFFORD Volume 06B Page 18

So Charlotte Ball is Albert's aunt, and therefore Sarah's great-aunt.

A civil marr could be a rego office marr, or a non-conformist marr where the church was not approved to keep an official marr register so the registrar would need to attend with his official marr rego for the couple plus witnesses to sign to complete the ceremony.
Pre-1898, the only non-conformists approved to keep an official marr rego were jews and quakers.
After 1898, any non-conformist church could apply to be approved (although the RCs chose not to apply until 1980-ish)
