I cannot find this to confirm. I am not trying, of course, to confirm your correction but trying to get the proper citation I should enter with the info. Whatever your source was is it possible to verify that this George Harry's (the previous guy listed George Henry) father was Charles Frederick Worral Morgan?

Mary Rendynles married William Heelis on the 4 Jan 1864 at Manchester Cathedral (Manchester, England, Marriages and Banns, 1754-1930 (Cathedral)) As the record is on Ancestry I have been able to look at the original document, the writing is very clear, the name is definitely spelt this way on the certificate. Mary has signed her name herself and it looks like she has also spelt it Rendynles. The document states that her father's name is George Rendynles - occupation Engraver.
