In 1867 Whitsunday was on 9 June. Looking for birth registrations of children, Elizabeth Jane was the only Simons (exact spelling) with a mother's maiden name of Goatham (including phonetically similar variaions) in the GRO online index, searched 1866-1880.
  Separated	Bef 15 Feb 1869
  	Not only was Willis was living with his parents at the time of the 1871 census, but when their daughter was not vaccinated against small-pox when she should have been it was Emma who was summoned to the Petty Sessions as they had separated and she had charge of the child. In 1868 Willis had been committed to prison for assaulting Emma, and it seems likely they would not have  and 'remarried' the following year, while Emma can be found in the 1881-1901 censuses living by herself, but shown as married.
  Married?	Not married or evidence to suggest they didn't marry
