Probably best to use the research service offered by the local history society.
Details of costs, etc are Here, but so far as I can tell, It is all of 2 quid.

Hi

Had a look on the brief amount of the Wakefield census for the year of 1851 and found these two out of the three names you asked for

George Shillitto aged 27 Soda Water Manufacture born Knottingly and the census was taken in Knottingly.

Robert (B) Shillito aged 1 born as above

They do not come as a family unit but the reference details are the same.

2329 11e page 32 volume 24

If someone else can chekc this on a full version tehn maybe they can find Emma as the only one that came up was an 18 year old unmarried.

Do you know for definate her name was Emma?
