I cant work out why it says her father Thomas was born 1831Hereford  in 1881 census In 1901 it says hes from Radnor and in 1871 it says Mordiford

Mordiford is very near Hereford - there's a Thomas who fits in the area in 1841 (ref  HO107/ 421/ 15/ 7 ) with Richard and Margarett, both 70 and Elizabeth, 25

Findmypast has a number of parish records for counties in Wales which include a scan of the register.

Can't see an Elizabeth registered in 1865, there is one in 1863, though. The 1864 registration gives Ann as her middle name as in the marriage registration, but dec qtr 1864 does seem a little late for someone given as 7 on the 1871 census and 18 at marriage in 1882. You could order from the local registrar rather than the GRO, specifying the names of the parents

As a matter of interes KGarrard are you researching the Morgans of Dingestow as I have a Christopher in my Morgan records also? As far as I know there are still Morgans living in the Dingestow area, I'm hoping to visit the area this summer.

Welcome to RootsChat! ;D

No - I have no Morgans or Christophers in my family tree!
I just enjoy researching for others. ;D

Original Poster wanted Elizabeth Christopher in a census, and I found her living with the Morgans.
So I transcribed the census entry in post #2.
