On the marriage records John is recorded as 'John Wright' Why?
The answer could be that from records his father was probably 'William Wright' of Foulsham to which his mother 'Eliza Isbell' was house keeper. John was recorded at birth as 'John Wright' - See below in 'More on John William Isbell'
All John's children were recorded as Isbell
In the 1901 Census he is recorded as 'Isbill Wright'

Records show that some Isbell children were staying with the Myhill family below - the ages would fit with this family.

More on John William Isbill (1874)

John's mother's marriage to Charles Isbill - not sure of Charles death date as there are several that could be him.
Need to check other census records....

1858:
Marriage Record - Chalres Isbell to Eliza Cooper at Norwich - Sep quarter (4b 197)

1874: John Wright born at Foulsham, Aylsham district - Mar quarter (4b 75)
We would assume that as John was recorded at birth as John Wright his father was William Wright although it is seen by census documents that he carried his mother's married surname Isbill.
As his birth certificate would have been John Wright is probably why he had to marry Emma under his official recorded name.
