Ralph Tunstall bn 1818ish is shown on 1851 census as a potter too. 

Not hugely surprising, being as he is in the Potteries  ::)

OK  Try this for size
I have Aaron Tunstall born 1818 (not sure where) marries Ellen Quayle in Liverpool in 1853 (by which time he is 35) when he is described as a widower.  I suspect he is the son of Aaron Tunstall b1773 in Liverpool, a potter.
Aaron & Ellen went on to have 3 children I can trace (William Henry died young, Aaron b1857 and John b1859).  They are living together as a family in 1861.
Next info I have is Aaron's burial in 1864 in Liverpool.
Aaron's occupation is mostly given as 'engineer'

Comborna,

The 1841 Census (ref.HO107 - 568 - 19 - 46 - 25) and 1851 Census (ref.HO107 - 2187 - 583 - 18) shows your Aaron as married to an Ann - no children.   As with 1861 Census (which you appear to have) he is shown as born Toxteth Park, Liverpool and birth ca.1815/1816.

His baptism is listed as Aaron Stunstall bp.26/3/1815 St. Nicholas, Liverpool, son of Aaron and Dolly (familysearch).

Aaron Tunstall married Dorothy Booth 13/11/1798 Upholland (familysearch)

1st marriage for your Aaron Tunstall was to Ann Clark 9/3/1835 St. James, Liverpool (his christian name given as 'Heron' - familysearch).

So your Aaron Tunstall - engineer - is not connected to the Aaron on this thread who was a potter.
