This marriage registration raises some problems.

John Browning gives his age as 39. To be consistent with earlier Census records, he would be closer to 53.
Lists his father as John Browning - Carpenter. Earlier marriage lists Thomas Browning as father.

This record does link John with Elizabeth. The 1891 census seems to bring this all together.
