Local BMD entry (from Staffs index for 1846) - indexed twice:
CARTLIDGE Ann WOOLDRIDGE Thomas Wolstanton, St Margaret Newcastle-Under-Lyme C30/4/46
and
GOTHAM Ann WOOLDRIDGE Thomas Wolstanton, St Margaret Newcastle-Under-Lyme C30/4/46
(since the copy of the marriage register entry would not be expected to be any different in the local reigster office, presumably the entry showing Ann as a CARTLIDGE is based on her father's name)
Although the PR entry gives Ann's father's name as Samuel CARTLIDGE, not BOAR(D)MAN I do think it was this Ann who married Thomas as there is a Thomas and Ann WOOLDRIDGE in the 1851 census with a 'son' Matthew, aged 13. Although shown as a WOOLDRIDGE, this Matthew is the right age to be the son of Charles and Ann GOTHAM. In addition there are no more children shown until one aged 4, i.e. soon after the marriage of Thomas WOOLDRIDGE and Ann GOTHAM.
There is no other sign of an Ann GOTHAM with a son Matthew in the 1851 census.
Unfortunately so far I have not found them in 1841 either, as this could give futher clues.
