Somerset Lookup Requests / Place:Somerton surname:Ashley

Please can any one help?
My 3rd Great grandfather is a VILE ASHLEY born:1818/1825 Somerton (obviously dates vary with census's & marriage cert)
who I have found in the 1861,1871,1881, & his death in 1889.
according to his marriage certificate in 1853 Somerton, his father is ROBERT ASHLEY who is a labourer
I was wondering if anyone would possibly try & locate a possible VILE & ROBERT in the 1841 & or 1851
and/or Somerton's Parish Records.
the only other confusing factor is that VILE's eldest daughter
(my 2nd Great Grandmother) MARY JANE ASHLEY b:1855 is on the 1861 census with her maternal Grandparents & states her birthplace as IRELAND (I lose her in 1871) then she gets married & in 1901 she states IRELAND as her birthplace, yet all her siblings have theirs as SOMERTON
Many thanks
Maria
