Mary Ellen Helme was born during the first quarter1854 in Congleton, Cheshire. By 1861 they had moved to Leeds and 1871 to Halifax. During the third quarter 1874 Mary married John Clayton Thrippleton in Halifax, but he died 1n 1878.
During the first quarter 1884, Mary married Harry Wood in Halifax. The 1891 census shows the couple living at Cross Street, Hipperholme with Brighouse, Halifax, with children from previous and current marriages. included in are:
Harry Wood Thrippleton, born in 1882, stepson of Harry
Joshua Wood Thrippleton, born in 1884, stepson of Harry
The 1901 census shows they had moved to 14, Haigh Street Brighouse, included are:
Harry Wood, born in 1882, son of Harry
Joshua Wood, born in 1882, son of Harry.
I cannot find any birth records for any of the 4 variations of name.
So was Mary the mother or Harry the father of the two boys or were Harry and Mary the parents and the boys were born out of wedlock?
Any help would be appreciated

Therefore, the assumption is: father is Harry and births prior to marriage.
