Cliston is clearly a mistranscription of Clifton - however, there is NO Houghton/Clifton marriage

In any case, the correct MMN is Longbotham

ADDENDUM

Explanation of the confusion - Mary's mother's maiden name was Clifton
This is something which occurred quite regularly, when people didn't understand what info they were being asked to provide

There is one person called Janyce who has a Lilian Houghton born 1896 in her tree.

You could message her to see if it the same person.
