It's probably Pembridge but I'll take a look anyway. According to the 1851 census Joseph says he was born in Worcester, Worcestershire.
I am desperately searching for the birthplace of my 5 x gr. grandfather Edward Wall, around 1733, and Pembridge is one of the places where around that time an Edward was born. How did you manage to get Elizabeth's surname ? Was it through the birth of one of the children ?

I've taken a look and it appears to read Penkridge and Penkridge is in Staffordshire, after checking with the IGI a Joseph Wall was bapt. in Penkridge 12 th Dec. 1813 parents Thomas and Sarah.
The other bapt. I found earlier was in in Worcester at Upton on Severn 13th Dec 1812 parents Joseph and Hester.

my cousin thought it could be penkridge but that joseph wall was still there in later census records whereas i know my joseph had moved to aston birmingham where all 4 children were born.
In 1871 Census Joseph Wall's birthplace is badly written he is aged 56 a waggoner born Hereford P---idge but I cannot make out the rest of the placename - perhaps someone with access to Ancestry can give me a hand reading it.
