I am very curious and greatful for any information or if I have any living relatives; I cannot find any information to show BENJAMIN or MATILDAs siblings so I am stuck here, please help me!

Looks good -  if this is the marriage, that is the right family in the census and gives you his siblings.

That is the correct family as on the marriage certificate it gives his father as Benjamin Lowe - Japenner. Benjamin was a cage maker and Matilda was in domestic service. Her father was a Frying pan maker.

The problem is most of our passenger lists dont start until 1890. I presume they just left for a better life.
