Birth:
Mary Ann Lees was born on 22 April 1832 at Micklehurst, Ashton-under-Lyne R.D., Lancashire, England,
Mary Ann is recorded as age 22 at her 1850 marriage. This would give her birth year as 1828.
I have not found an 1828 birth with father James, so am going with the 1832 one (which fits better with later census ages).
There is a Mary Ann Lees baptized 3 Apr 1828 - a daughter of William & Mary of Broadbottom (Mottram-in-Longdendale Parish)

Speculation: Mary Ann may have added a few years to her age in order to be "over 21". At this time, marriage below 21 is thought to have needed the consent of parents or guardian*. If both parents had died, this might be quite complicated.
* Parental consent - this was briefly required between 1753 & 1823. Before and after this period, consent should be obtained but the marriage was neither void nor voidable if no consent had been obtained. - unsourced Web forum.

The Naval Career of William Pack
At age 19, on 4 May 1859 he volunteered for ten years of service in the Royal Navy. William Pack stood 5' 4 ¾" had light brown hair and blue eyes with fair complexion. Upon enlisting he was assigned to the HMS Britannia as Boy 1st Class. The HMS Britannia (the 3rd by that name) was a 120-gun first-rate ship-of-the-line of the Royal Navy, laid down in 1813 and launched on 20 October 1820. She was commissioned in 1823, and saw service in the Mediterranean from 1830-31 and in 1841. She was decommissioned in 1843, before returning to service for the Crimean War, serving as flagship of Admiral Sir James Deans Dundas, commanding the British fleet in the Mediterranean and Black Sea from 1851-54. The HMS Britannia returned to England at the beginning of 1855 and that year became a hospital ship at Portsmouth, then a cadet training ship in 1859 under the command of Captain Robert Harris. It was to this training ship that William Pack was assigned. HRH Prince George (future King George V), became a cadet on this same ship in September 1877. William was promoted in rank to ordinary Seaman 2nd Class on 4 Sept 1859 and he was noted as having very good character. He was discharged from the HMS Britannia on 20 Feb 1860 an assigned to the HMS Royal Albert the following day.
HMS Britannia
The HMS Royal Albert was a 121 gun three-decker ship launched at Woolwich Dockyard in 1854. Originally designed as a sailing ship, she was converted to screw propulsion while still under construction. From commissioning at Sheerness she was first commanded by Commander Alexander Little between June and October 1854. From October to November 1854 by Captain Thomas Sabine Pasley while still at Sheerness. From 14 February 1855 to April 1857 she was commanded by Captain William Robert Mends as flagship to Rear-Admiral Edmund Lyons commanding the Mediterranean fleet, then chiefly concerned with the Crimean War. From April 1857 to 20 August 1858 she was commanded by Captain Francis Egerton. From 25 August 1858 to October 1859 she was commanded by Captain Edward Bridges Rice as part of the Channel Squadron under Rear-Admiral Charles Howe Fremantle. The HMS Royal Albert received a new captain on 1 October 1859, Captain Henry James Lacon, who remained up to her paying off at Plymouth on 25 January 1861. William Pack first served under Captain Rice 4-30 Sept 1859 and then from 1 Oct 1859 to 25 Jan 1861 under Captain Lacon. On 24 Feb 1860 they set sail for Lisbon, Portugal. On 10 July 1860, the HMS Royal Albert, flagship of the Channel Squadron, was reviewed at sea by HRH Albert Edward, Prince of Wales, before his departure for Canada. On 1 Aug 1860 William Pack was promoted from Ordinary Seaman 2nd Class to Full Ordinary Class for his "very good" character. The HMS Royal Albert had a complement of 1,050 men.
HMS Royal Albert
On 26 Jan 1861, William Pack was assigned to the HMS Narcissus (the 3rd bearing that name). She was wooden-hulled screw-frigate in service from 1859 to 1883. Constructed in Devonport, she launched 26 Oct 1859. She was under the command of Captain Richard Hawkins Risk as the flagship of Rear-Admiral Baldwin Wake Walker sailing to the Cape of Good Hope. From 27 Jan 1862 until 6 Aug 1864 she was under the command of Captain Joseph Grant Bickford around the Cape of Good Hope and in the East Indies. William Pack was promoted from Seaman Ordinary Class to Able Seaman on 1 Feb 1864. He served on the HMS Narcissus until 6 Aug 1864 when he was assigned to the HMS Victoria.
HMS Narcissus
HMS Victoria was the last British wooden first-rate three-decked ship of the line commissioned for sea service. With a displacement of 6,959 tons, she was the largest wooden battleship which ever entered service. She was also the world's largest warship until the completion of HMS Warrior, Britain's first ironclad battleship, in 1861. Victoria´s hull was 79.2 metres (260 ft) long and 18.3 metres (60 ft) wide. She had a medium draught of 8.4 metres (27.5 ft). Her hull was heavily strapped with diagonal iron riders for extra stability. Victoria was the first British battleship with two funnels.
She was armed with a total of 121 guns (32 8-inch (200 mm) guns on the lower gun deck, 30 8-inch (200 mm) guns on the central gun deck, 32 32-pounders on the upper gun deck, 26 32-pounders and one 68-pounder on the upper deck). Victoria was ordered on 6 January 1855, laid down on 1 April 1856 at Portsmouth, and launched on 12 November 1859. She cost a total of £150,578 (2010: £11,401,000) and had a complement of 1,000.
During trials in Stokes Bay on 5 July 1860 HMS Victoria reached a top speed of 11.797 knots (21.848 km/h), making her the fastest three decker worldwide. Her Maudslay engine was powered by 8 boilers and developed 4,403 ihp. After completion Victoria was laid up as part of the reserve fleet at Portsmouth from 1860 to 1864. Able Seaman Pack was assigned to the HMS Victoria on 7 Aug 1864 and served her until 7 Aug 1867. Once again his service was noted as "very good." He received his first badge on 7 Aug 1866 and his second on 7 Aug 1868. The HMS Victora first entered active service on 2 November 1864, when she became the Flagship of the Mediterranean fleet under Vice-Admiral Smart and Captain Goodenough, and from 1865: Rear-Admiral Lord Clarence Paget, Captain Gardner. HMS Victoria was based in Malta until 1867 when she returned home. Her armament had been reduced to 102 guns. Her last public appearance came at the 17 July 1867 Spithead Review before Her Majesty Queen Victoria. The HMS Victoria was paid off on 7 August 1867.
HMS Victoria, 121 Guns
On 8 Aug 1867, Able Seaman William Pack married Mary Jane Bound at Bishop's Waltham, Hampshire. The gap between the date of his marriage and the birth of his first children in August 1871 is explained by his Navy service.
That same day, 8 Aug 1867, Able Seaman Pack was assigned to the HMS Boscawen under the command of Commander McLeod Baynes Cockcraft until 11 Oct 1867 and then under the command of Commander Henry Fairfax. Seaman Pack served on board until 15 Oct 1869. HMS Boscawen (the 3rd by that name) was a 70-gun third rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy, launched on 3 April 1844 at Woolwich Dockyard. She was originally ordered and begun as a 74-gun ship, but an Admiralty order dated 3 March 1834 required that she be reworked to Sir William Symonds' design. She was named for Admiral Edward Boscawen. The HMS Boscawen served as a training ship since 5 Mar 1862 at Portsmouth. Seaman Pack was now showing the ropes to new recruits.
HMS Boscawen
On 16 Apr 1869, when William Pack's ten years duty was coming to an end, he was assigned to the Coast Guard per his request. He served on the HMS Trafalgar under the command of Captain Edward King Barnard. Seaman Pack had enlisted for another ten years of service. HMS Trafalgar was a 120-gun first rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy, launched on 21 June 1841 at Woolwich Dockyard. She was the last to be completed of the successful Caledonia class. The ship was named by Lady Bridport, niece of Lord Nelson at the request of Queen Victoria, who with Prince Albert also attended the launch. The wine used was some kept from HMS Victory after returning from Trafalgar. Five hundred people were on board the ship at the time of its launch, of whom 100 had been at Trafalgar. It was estimated 500,000 people came to watch the event and the Thames was covered for miles with all manner of boats. The launch was the subject of the most notable work by Woolwich-based artist William Ranwell. It played a role in the Crimean War, bombing Sebastopol. The HMS Trafalgar was fitted with screw propulsion in 1859 and was subsequently commissioned for the Coast Guard on 1 Mar 1864.
HMS Trafalgar
By 1871 Seaman Pack had retired from the Royal Navy but later worked as H.M. Customs Officer in Southampton at least through 1901. In 1911 he lived at 11 English Rd. in Shirley, Hampshire receiving a Navy pension. He probably is to be identified with the William Pack born abt 1840 whose death was registered Oct-Dec 1917 in Southampton.
