On the Forest of Dean records, there is a Marriage at Awre of John WILLARS of the Forest of Dean, marrying Maria HAWKINS - 22 October 1829 - no parents names given - but Memoranda: with Consent of Parents - as John would seem to be quite young on the census returns, this could be the marriage: Witnesses: Thomas HAWKINS and Charles FENNELL

Looking on Ancestry, John is John WILLATS and Maria is HOWKINS

Banns called - 4/11/18 October

From my past experience in my family tree - I do have children whose mother's name is either Mary or Ann - so this might be worth a bit more research.
