StaffordshireBDM has the following interesting 2 entries

Staffordshire Marriage indexes for the years: 1863
ASHLEY Joshua BARLOW Anne W Bradeley, All Saints and St Mary Stafford CE3/1/104
ASHLEY Joshua SABEN Anne W Bradeley, All Saints and St Mary Stafford CE3/1/104
http://www.staffordshirebmd.org.uk/
So we have Joshua Ashley marrying Anne Barlow and Anne Saben with the same reference number?? The two names seem very different to be a transcription error, so it may be that Anne Barlow was also known as Anne Saben? This certificate may take you back a little further.

Edited later -    I'm sometimes a little slow - given Anne's age on the 1881 Census she was probably a widow when she married Joshua. Anne Saben was probably her married name. Interesting that both names are on the certificate. I have been married twice and my maiden name is not on my 2nd marriage certificate.
You may be able to find some 1/2 siblings for Edward Barlow Ashley.

The same site gives a birth for Joshua Ashley in 1843 at Newcastle under Lyme. Whether this is yours?
I couldn't find the birth of Edward Barlow Ashley, but the UKBDM sites seem to be regularily updated, so worth returning to in the future.

I did find this on the 1881 Census, Age is about right for Edward B - slightly out for Joshua (if the same as the above birth - but given the age difference between Joshua and Anne, adding a few years is possible).

Anne appears to be 20 years older than Joshua -  she would have been 44 when her son was born which is possible.
If Anne's age is correct this appears to be her birth from the IGI
