    1881 census, RG11, Piece/Folio 2867/128
    Meeting Street, Tipton, Staffordshire

    Henry Lambert, Head, 40, Tipton, Staffordshire
    Mary Lambert, Wife, 49, Tipton, Staffordshire
    Liza Lambert, Daughter, 12, Tipton, Staffordshire
    Henry Lambert, Son, 10, Tipton, Staffordshire
    Hannah Lambert, Daughter, 7, Tipton, Staffordshire
    Mary A Lambert, Daughter, 3, Tipton, Staffordshire
    Isaac Lambert, Son, 0, Tipton, Staffordshire

    Liza Lambert, Daughter, 12, Tipton, Staffordshire = Eliza Lambert born Tipton 1869 MMN Griffiths

    1891 census, RG12, Piece/Folio 2173/ 16
    Hickens Row, Stoke on Trent

    Henry Lambert, Head, 43, Tipton, Staffordshire
    Mary Lambert, Wife, 43, Tipton, Staffordshire
    Henry Lambert, Son, 18, Tipton, Staffordshire
    Isaac Lambert, Son, 13, Tipton, Staffordshire
    Mary Ann Lambert, Daughter, 15, Tipton, Staffordshire

    One thing to bare in mind is there are surname variations. When Isaac married in 1898 his surname was written as Lambeth (he couldn't write so the registrar filled it in) Some of the children's names when registered have Lamberth

    This looks like it could be them:
    RG10, piece 3003, folio 44, page 26 - surname LAMBETH
    Henry 37
    Mary 35
    Matilda 11
    Eliza 3

    I know that the ages are out compared to other censuses, but the rest looks good. :)

    One way to check would be to find Matilda's birth and check the MMN to see if it matches that of the other children. :)

    1861 he is a Puddler, born Tipton age 22. Wife Mary 23 born Tipton. No children.
    29 RG09 2044/19
    So far no luck in 1871

    I did find that one but passed it up because of the age differences. Can't find a birth for Matilda.

    oooh not seen that one.

    When looking for a marriage for a Henry Lambert to a Mary I found one on 29 Jul 1861 in Tipton, but that would have been after the census.

    Could Tipton also be known once in Worcestershire?

    There are few Matilda Griffiths born in Dudley that fit around that time.

    As Matilda is 11 in 1871, I reckon that she is the one born in the September quarter of 1859 (6c/40) Just checked the MMN and none is listed, indicating that she is probably illegitimate. ;)

    However, the only Matilda GRIFFITH(S) that I can find in Tipton in 1861 is the one whose birth was registered in the March quarter of 1861. She is aged 3 months.... Tuh!
