So looks like both deceased by 1851 Census;

Age 66, abode Belbroughton Bell Heath



From rosie99

Age 66
Burial date 10 Sep 1849

The Bromsgrove William was likely bapt there 27 Dec 1784, Father HENRY

1841 we have;
Wm Harbur 55
Ann Harbur 50

1851 Census

Ann Harbridge 63 Wife born Bromsgrove


1861 as you mentioned he is widowed.

Thank you so much all! I had a feeling the William who died in 1851 could be more likely but the one alive in 1861 really threw me.

Yes I can understand the Bromsgrove William in 1861 was confusing.

Looks like you are on the right track now
