Hi Lauren. You won't believe this, but I came across the following this very day:

"Mr.J.B.Geoghegan, Comic Vocalist and Author of numerous Popular Songs, and Miss M.A.Birchall, Serio-Comic and Ballads, will be at liberty on Monday next, November 4, after a most successful Engagement of Eleven Months, at the Victory Hall, Aldershott.
Can engage separate or jointly.

Address, No.1 Union-road, Aldershott"

Era Magazine, November 3rd, 1861

'Miss Birchall', of course, is his bit of stuff whom he eventually married. On the same census night, his wife Elizabeth was stuck at home in Liverpool with six of their kids.
