Perhaps an index typo at NSW BDM index?

Elizabeth A Peisley and Benjamin C Hyde marriage registered 1854 at Carcoar C of E (not far from Orange) ....
#V1854800 41B/1854

Perhaps their (oops, I mean George and Elizabeth's) daughter married in 1895

#2242 gives Kathleen A Summers and Sydney A Hankey registered in Sydney
and
#2342 gives Kathleen F Summers and Sydney H Hankey registered in Sydney. 

I am aware that there's a number of issues with the NSW BDM online index, but to me there's a number of co-incidences in those two entries, perhaps it was one marriage... those indexes are drawn from quarterly returns that were handwritten...

Benjamin C Flide died 1867 so Elizabeth was free to marry again in 1874. Her maiden name may have been Peisley I have not checked the marriage.

Short version
The NSW BDM Registrar General Office was not set up until mid 1850's. 
They did not receive the marriage records from the years prior to that until the mid 1880s.
Even now, they still have not completed the reconciliation processes to complete their records for marriages pre WWI.

JM Comments
So, a clerk in Sydney NSW BDM decades after an Elizabeth A Peisley had married a chap at Carcoar in 1854 needed to include that marriage on the HO registry.  The clerk is reading a handwritten record.  The clerk does not recognise the handwriting, and reads the surname as Hyde.   
JM Question Is it likely that the surname was Flide ...
JM Answer Yes, it could well be Flide, perhaps the Carcoar C of E parish records will have the entry.

Cheers,  JM

It appears that Elizabeth was the daughter of John and Mary although this is presumed. They had several more children born here 1840's-1850's after possible emmigration around the early 1840's.

Some newspaper items as well as the NSW State records reveal that BENJAMIN CHARLS FLIDE was a surveyor under Sir Thomas Mitchell who in later years was living in Sydney, having moved from Orange.

He drowned in the Parramatta River aged 38 about 0/7/1867.
