Hello Roger, Assuming that the details you gave were as per the 1861 Census, It'd seem that Elizabeth would've been William's second wife - and that they'd likely married around 1849-50. That being the case, then this family - the only one that looks even vaguely similar to yours - would seem to be them in 1851...

MOLE Son - 4 M --- Feckenham-WOR Mary Ann MOLE Daur - 11 F --- Feckenham-WOR Eliza GIBBS Serv - 15 F House Servant Inkberrow-WOR Address: Astwood Bank, Alcester Census Place: Feckenham Alcester, Warwickshire PRO Reference: HO/107/2075 Folio: 356 Page: 3 FHL Film: 0087344 Ignore the bulk of the Address & Census Place details - they're largely rubbish, and caused by the LDS' own interpretation of how places in England were described.... A truer version of the state of affairs would be: 1851 Census HO107 - Piece 2075 Registration District - Alcester (Warwickshire) Registration Sub-District - Feckenham (Worcestershire) Parish - Feckenham Hamlet - Astwood Bank Folio 356; Page 3 Astwood Bank lies on the A441 - effectively the WOR-WAR Boundary - but was (and still is) all in Worcestershire. In 1851 it shared a long boundary with Ipsley, Warwickshire. A walk of Ľ mile would suffice to get from one to the other. The Oldest Son was (presumably) baptised William Henry. Finally, I wonder where they were recorded in 1861, as Inkberrow is well-enough known in the Feckenham-Redditch area not to be so oddly spelled...
