There is a christening for
Hannah Swain 5th April 1863
Gresley, Derbyshire
parents John Swain and Hannah Swain
from familysearch

I don't know how close Gresley is to Crich.

There's this one.

which would make her a mature bride.

Or it's possible that she had been married before and Swain was her first husband's surname.
