Missing 2 in Harris family at St Keverne

Genie1

Cornish to the Core
Nancy Harris bapt 1812 and Jane James bapt 1814 are children of John and Mary (nee Retallack Harris.
There is a marriage between Henry Nicholas Richards and Nancy Harris 26th September 1830 at Antony. If it is Nancy she would be 18 years old but no age on marriage .I can't find Henry Nicholas and Nancy anywhere. I know that Nancy can also be Ann.
A death for Jane James Harris in 1858 isn't the one that I am looking for. The 1858 Jane death was age 22.
The 2 have to have died before the 1870s because the father only mention 3 children in his will and they have been found.
John and Mary had 8 children and only Nancy and Jane James Harris can't be found.
 
I looked at gov bmd and put the information and it showed the age was 22. so I didn't have to waste money on a certificate that way.

One brother named John, moved to Newcastle and he died between 1861 and 1871. His widow iwas there in those census' and another named Samuel lived in Canada.
The rest stayed in Cornwall but ,as usual, there are always those in a family that can't be found.
