Only one 1851 entry in Staffs - b 1787 Wolstanton married to Frances b 1793 Wolstanton.

Living in the Wolstanton RD - not Stourbridge

Stourbridge RD can also be Worcestershire as well as Staffs

For simplicity, Stourbridge RD covers these areas (from FreeBMD):

I am not sure this is my Charles Jones at this stage. 1851 census he was living in Birmingham but on this census he was born in Handsworth. I will continue to look, ideally i would like to find a birth record to identify father and mother if possible

Thanks everyone for your help
