Hello annerich1
You've posted this on the Staffordshire forum, but have you also tried to find them in Shropshire as their eldest child was born in Newport?
By the way, are you sure it's the correct marriage, as their eldest child wasn't born for another 8 years, and your dates suggest Robert was 13 when he married the 19 year old Ellen in 1839. If you got the date from FreeBMD or Ancestry then did you realise that they haven't fully transcribed the whole index yet? Records Office or http://www.1837online.com/Trace2web/LogonServlet is the surest way. Joseph's birth certficate is likely to give you an address in Shropshire that could help with your search and also provide you with Ellen's maiden name.

Hope
