They are listed as Hayse in the 1851 Census of Botsford Parish with a family of seven, the oldest being 21. Perhaps they were married in 1831 ? If actually married in 1851 she would have been his second wife - perhaps a widow. The reason I ask is because a Phiana (Anna) Akerly married James Ballard on 9 Mar 1831, at Wallace, NS.
