Brierly Hill - Wolverhampton Church

[Therese]

I am looking for marriage banns 1862 at Wolverhampton Church between Margaret Jordan and Charles Duggan.
If an 'order of affiliation' was made against Charles Duggan in 1862 where am I likely to find that.
Charles Duggan worked for a Mr Foster at Brierly Hill.
A child Bethia Duggan was born supposedly to the above two in April 1862 but I haven't found her birth.
The above information has been gathered from a newspaper report so have no idea how accurate it is.

Grateful for any ideas or information.
Thank you
Therese

I wonder if Bethia was registered under Jordan but can't find a birth under either surname nor a marriage. 

What is the newspaper report about?

Thankyou for your replies Milliepede and Jackie.

The newspaper article was an emigration case. Duggan denied he was the father of Bethia. He already had banns published at Wolverhampton Church to another lady( I thought it was to Margaret Jordan but have reread the item) which would have been  1862 before October.

Maybe Margaret married someone else and Bethia took his name ?

There's a Margaret Jordan around in Staffs in 1861 age 23 servant.  She appears to marry Thomas Shipton in 1865 but no Bethia with them in 1871 just two little ones Mary and Lucy

That Margaret could be a possibility. Bethia could have died or given to someone else to bring up.
