1861 census RG9/1000 folio 39B
Richard Barfoot Head widower 49 Tailor born Millbrook Beds
Mary A Barfoot dau Unm 29 charwoman b Ampthill
William Barfoot son unm 25 tailor b St Albans Herts
James Barfoot son unm 22 Ag lab b Ampthill
Susan Barfoot dau 14 b Ampthill
Thomas Barfoot grandson 6 b Ampthill
Emily Barfoor gr dau 3 b Ampthill
There was also another family of Barfoots, or should it be Barfeet, who were tailors as well, so it may be a family trade:
Woburn St Ampthill
John Barfoot H M 39 Tailor b Ampthill
Hannah Barfoot wife 42 b Ampthill
John Barfoot jnr son unm 18 Tailor b Ampthill
Hannah warner niece 7 scholar b Brixton Surrey
I can't find Richard and James in 1841 in Ampthill, Maulden or Millbrook.
But the other family was in Ampthill
William Barfoot 50 tailor not born in Beds
Mary 50 born in Beds
John 19 born in Beds
William 13 b in Beds
I suspect that William and Mary may have been the parents of Richard - see the IGI where there is a birth in Millbrook in 1811 of Richard son of William & Mary, which fits with his age of 49 and place of birth in 1861. There is also a marriage in Millbrook of William Barfoot and Mary Forfeit in 1810.
I think Richard Barfoot's wife was Ann Wesley - they married 24 Dec 1829 at Ampthill.
You should check the IGI findings in the parish registers, but it looks a reasonable hypothesis with a fairly unusual name.
Let me know if you need anything else
Regards
David

There are no BARFOOTs in Milbrook listed in 1851 - in Flitwick
H.J Barfoot took out a 24 year lease out on 107, Midland Road as a tailors shop & premises in 1903 - it was sold by auction in 1912
John Barfoot of Ampthill, tailor, took an apprentice from the workhouse in Jan 1869 [John Barrat of Haynes, aged 14]
These people will probably be listed in the trade directories which are on line
