Hello...
I am looking for the marriage of a William Faull b. 1829 St. Agnus, Cornwall to a woman named Sally (Susan, Sarah??) between the years of 1845 and 1847. His Parents were Thomas and Grace Faull (they are named in his christening record as well as in residence with him in the 1841 Census)
All I know about "Sally" is that she was born St. Austell abt 1826 (I would +/-2 or 5 years on that since the 1851 census seems to be a couple of years off for everyone).
If anyone could help me out with this it would be much appreciated.
Thank you for your time :)

There is this one ,
Marriages Sep 1842
FAULL William Helston 9 152
THOMAS Sarah Helston 9 152

They have a daughter age 1 Elizabeth J with them in 1851. There is a baptism at St Ewe 1849 on Cornwall OPC having her mother's name as Jane, father William, whereas the baptism of her older sister Emily has her mother's name Sally.
FreeBMD has only one birth reg for an Elizabeth J and it is registered Redruth March 1/4 1850. Redruth is where the family is in 1851

I saw that one also , but the OP says his father was called Thomas, so discounted it

If the mother is Jane then there is this marriage
St Ewe, 23 Dec 1843
William Faull full age of St Cleer bachelor a miner, father William a miner
Jane VIAN, full age of Little Polgooth, spinster father Richard deceased
Witnesses William Faull and John Faull
But father's name not correct. The birth certificate for One of the children would sort it.

Elizabeth Jane Faull marries George Dyer (they travel to the US in 1870) and it is through her I am looking for this particular family. Her date of birth (from her death cert issued in Pennsylvania) is 22 Feb 1849.
If the mother is Jane then there is this marriage

I saw this one but discounted it because William would only be aged 14... not of majority/age to marry (from what I understand the age was 16)
this one is closer as in StAustell
Marriages Dec 1849
Faul William Austell St 9 32
Ley Susan St Austel 9 32
This is promising because the census lists Sally as being from St Austel. Even though it would mean that when Elizabeth was born her parents weren't married? Would they indicate that in the christening record?
There is this one ,
Marriages Sep 1842
FAULL William Helston 9 152
THOMAS Sarah Helston 9 152
Age issue again... he would only be 13 years old in 1842

the Elizabeth Jane baptised at St Ewe is from a different family. They have 4 children baptised at St Ewe 1847-1852 and are in Christow, Devon for the 1861 census.
Emily, the older sister of your Elizabeth, was baptised 29 Aug 1848 at St Day, daughter of William & Sally, William a miner, and their abode Wheal Rose. Nothing in that record to suggest they weren't married, but that doesn't mean that they were married.
Saying that, there is a possible marriage in St Agnes 25 Jan 1847 for a William Faul & Sarah Yourin both living at Wheal Rose, her father George, his father Henry, all the men miners, both witnesses surname Faul, both spouses sign with their mark.
Faull is not uncommon in the area. There is a baptism for a William, son of Henry & Jenifer of Wheal Rose, 28 March 1825 at St Agnes.
Think the way to go should be the birth cert for Elizabeth Jane. I suspect that the date of her birth on the death reg is correct but out by one year. If she was born in Feb 1849 her age on the 1851 census would have been 2, not 1 as shows.

I went ahead and ordered Elizabeth J's birth registration. I hope it is the right one :)
Thank you guys for the help

Fingers crossed it's the correct one , Pllease let us know the outcome :)

Ok! Got the Registration today and it has shed considerable light on the subject!

This appears to be the correct information for this family. Elizabeth's birth registration says she was born in Wheal Rose and her parents are William and Sarah Faull (nee "Uren"). I am going to say that since Uren sounds like "Yourin" that this was a mis-spelling of the maiden surname.
Thank You Osprey for finding that information on their marriage for me as it provides me with Sarah's father's name :)
Upward and Onward!! :D
Editied to add:
This has thrown a wrench in what information I had for what I thought was the correct William Faull! If the William that married Sarah Yourin is the father of my Elizabeth Jane-- then the records I have for William (parents: Thomas and Grace per baptism record dated 09 Jul 1829 at St. Agnus) are incorrect.
AHHHHHH! <ripping hair out of my head>
