I searched in New York state not just Oneida Co. The 1850 index had a few Wemp's and Wempel's. There are Wamp's in Fulton and Montgomery Co., NY. Wamphe,Miner is listed in Herkimer Co., NY, town of Frankfort page 103. There were also Wample's, Wampole's, Wamport's, Wamsley's. No Wimp's or any variation of Wimp is listed in the NY 1850 Census. There is a Wimple. No Wump's or Womp's or any variation of them in NY. None of these had the first name of Elijah. 1860 index lists an Elijah Wamsley in Richmond Co.,NY town of Middleton page 630. I only have access to the 1850 Oneida Co. census so can't help you with lookups for any of these.
