In case that 1863 Henrietta is the right one:

DIXON, HENRIETTA mms APPLE...
GRO Reference: 1863 S Quarter in WHITECHAPEL Volume 01C Page 371


But I don't see a corresponding marriage of any woman with surname starting Apple. . . . marrying a Dixon.

It seems a bit of a stretch for your grandfather Charles and Edward to be brothers - more likely that Edward's brother was your GREAT grandfather

IF - and I stress IF - she knew her father's name, that will be recorded. Her mother's name will not, but with the father's name you'll have something to work on

OK, but that doesn't help with your specific request

You need the marriage cert.

As the marriage posted above looks to be correct, get a copy of the cert to find out if she knew her father

How did the papers come to you? Are you related?

Do you know her maiden name? Also, when was this? We really need some idea of a time frame.
