    Perhaps this is George in 1851:

    Spurling Street, Latchfield/Warrington, Cheshire
    George Senior, head, 25, wire drawer, b. Wales
    Elizabeth ", wife, 25, b. Cheshire Latchfield
    Elizabeth ", dau, 3, b. Lancashire Warrington
    Ellenor ", dau, 11 mo., b. " "

    A 35 year old widowed Elizabeth Senior (born Warrington) was a housemaid in Warrington in 1861 (RG 9/2791, f.38, p.22).

    If this is any help, a possible baptism for one of the children...

    name: Eleanor Senior
    baptism/christening date: 14 Jun 1850
    baptism/christening place: Chester, Warrington, Lancaster, Lancashire, England
    birth date: 09 May 1850
    father's name: George Senior
    mother's name: Elizabeth Ashton
    (Family Search)

    Perhaps this is their marriage...

    Marriages Mar 1847 Warrington 20 660
    SENIOR, George
    ASHTON, Elizabeth

    According to the Cheshire BMD this marriage was held at Grappenhall, St Wilfrid.

    In the 1871 census, it looks as if Elizabeth may have married again. From the Cheshire BMD, Timothy BOOTH married Elizabeth SENIOR/ASHTON in 1867 at Warrington, St Paul.

    This does look like a possibility & I think that there maybe another enumeration error as I am sure it would be Latchford not Latchfield.They even have Warrington in Cheshire then Elizabeth b.Warrington Lancashire in the same census return.
    It used to be Warrington Lancashire & then changed to Warrington Cheshire when the new boundary changes came in but I think this would be more recent than the 1800s.As a former Lancashire lass I must check!!

    This does look like George Seniors widow for sure but what was this enumerator up to on Eleanors baptism/christening place
    Chester,Warrington,Lancaster,Lancashire(goodness me) no wonder we have so much frustration finding these ancestors.

    Now it's my turn to say sorry! I have googled & found there was/is a place at Warrington which is called Latchfield Locks it is by the River Mersey.

    I was right on the county boundaries. Warrington was changed from Lancashire to Cheshire in 1974 in line with the Local Govt Act 1972.
