Hi Paul,
Yes, thank you very much, I have found that one. I think you will find the name is Danks, not Banks. I can only assume that Mary Ann was the wife of one of Merwin's sons. I have found 6 children so far: Edwin <1836>, George 1839, Isaac 1849, Sarah Ann 1851, Maria 12.12.1852 and Joshua <1857>. I need to find Mary Ann on an earlier census with her husband!
Thanks again.
Jill
Think you are out of luck with this Jill. In 1871 they are at Salop St too (RG10-3010/41)
Moses Perks?,unm,33
Sophia Danks,boarder,wid,60
Mary Ann Hartshorn,boarder,wid,34,nailor
Edwin Hartshorn,grandson,14,fire iron polisher
The 1861 at http://www.griffs4bears.co.uk has

THOMAS DANKS 47 yrs 35760
SOPHIA DANKS 47 yrs 35760
MARY A. HARTSHORN 23 yrs 35761
EDWIN HARTSHORN 3 yrs 35761
Can't tell what relationship Mary Ann is to Thomas, a single letter then "wife" possibly, and to be honest I could not tell if her status was a "W" or something else. Sorry.
In 1861 Merwin's age is clearly 43 so you don't need to worry about that

Great findings!
Hack: 'Executioner & Shoe Dealer' is much more interesting than shoe repairer and keycutter (the current bizarre combination) - and it brings new meaning to the words 'Dead Man's Shoes' 
Broakham - couple of fine points for you
tabitha - love it love it love it!

Sorry Tabitha, you're getting too close so I'll have to throw in Obadiah Migbrow, a patient in Chesterfield Hospital in 1881.

Well, broakham, a well-earned point for Obadiah but AS YOU WELL KNOW  there are over a hundred knocker uppers in 1881 - though George may well indeed be the only one married to a midwife!
keep the coming!

That's strange. I have her as Maria Hartshorn age 20 in the 1841, Mirven Hartshorn age 33 in the 1851, in 1861 she is Merwin Hartshorne/Nail Maker age 48 (which is confusing in itself) and in 1871 she is Merwin M., age 53. The same address, St. James Terrace, Dudley for all censuses. I haven't seen the images.
On the IGI Christening records for her children she becomes Murwin Maria and I have this week found her death, in Sheffield in January 1901 and I sent for the certificate yesterday.
I haven't yet found her on the 1881 or 1891 so maybe she is one of those you have found?
Ok I found her in 1881 living at 23 St James, Terrace Dudley
Name has been transcribed at Alervin Hartshorn and a "male"
as well.
Paul do I get at least point she/he is the only Alervin in anywhere.

Gennig - you not only receive a well-earned point, you may probably find that JillJ wants to express her eternal gratitude - what a find! (Even beats my Conrad / Leonard mistranscription found earlier this week!).
Hack - I think a bonus point for the elegant symmetry we have come to expect of you, plus three makes four!
Broakham - it ain't over until the fat lady sings!
