Could this be a coincidence?

On my g grandfathers birth cert his mother is listed as Elizabeth REED. His father had an unusual first name (Wilson)and the only marriage refernece I could find for a Wilson Lakin on FreeBMD was to a Annie Elizabeth Reid (note different spelling). Can I take it that it this could be the same person? The dates would be appropriate but I'm worried about ordering the marriage cert in case it is wrong and following a wrong lead. Any advice would be very welcome.

Judith Have you tried looking on the 1837 site for additional information? When do you think they married? Sue

I'm going to check on 1837 and then see if the ref numbers match but the site has been constantly unavailablre for the last 2 days.
