Lynne, I think the Mary Ann Dunkley that married William Matthews is Sabra's sister. This is confirmed by their brother, Thomas, living with the Matthews in 1891.

Hope that made sense!

This looks a better match in 1871 for Mary.

1871 England, Wales & Scotland Census Transcription
Brington Moors, Brington, Brixworth, Northamptonshire, England

William Alibone Head - Male 68 1803 - Northamptonshire, England
Susanna Alibone Wife - Female 57 1814 - Northamptonshire, England
Edwin Alibone - - Male 16 1855 - Northamptonshire, England
Mary Dunkley - - Female 15 1856 - Long Buckby, Northamptonshire,

The age on the Guisborough marriage fits too- perhaps the age on the 1881 was given by someone else?
