Seeking George Bennett (Urgent)

George Bennett married Ellen Stidder in Abenhall on 10 Nov 1860. He is said to be a miner, of age and the marriage was witnessed by her father Edward. There were 3 children born before Ellen died in 1869. He is reputed to have gone with the youngest child Lydia Ann (ka Lydia Ellen) to New Zealand. Lydia married Frederick Lurch there in 1887. She is my g grandmother.
I am really keen to find out more about George Bennett. Other than that one marriage record I can find nothing that would seem to be of use. A DOB would be good. The parish records do not seem to help and 1841,51 and 61 censuses don't really hit the spot. If anyone has information or suggestions to track my elusive gg grandfather, I would be grateful. I am quite prepared to believe my searching has missed something significant.
