Is this Nancy connected to the correct family?

Asking because she has no maiden name even though the parents she's connected to indicate it 'should' be Asher. There's nothing in her About section to clarify why she's showing with an unknown maiden name.

Thanks.

My ancestry tree has William Asher as father and Mary Bean as mother. On wikitree, there is enough evidence to assign her mother but not her father.

Look at her husband, he’s a Patriot.

What is the evidence for parents?

Seen as daughter of William Asher, Sr. & Mary Elizabeth Asher

It’s a lousy marriage record but the comment from the descendant / researcher carries weight with me. Can there be more evidence?
