Marriage is:
September qtr 1890
Wakefield district     vol 9c, page 85

Shaw, Ada
+ and on the same page +
Wilby, John

This looks likely from the 1871 census (Normanton being a parish within the Wakefield Registration District):
Reference RG10, Piece 4617, Folio 113, Page 37
Keeper House, Altofts

Shaw, Thomas  Head  M  46  Ag Lab  b Featherstone
Shaw, Anne  Wife  F  45  b Carmel
Shaw, Thomas  Son  M  16  b Normanton
Shaw, Sarah  Daughter  F  13  b Bardsey
Shaw, Eliza  Daughter  F  5  b Bardsey
Shaw, John  Son  M  9  b Normanton
Shaw, Ada  Daughter  F  2  b Normanton
