Although could n't seem to see them on the 1841, i've been on the pilot project on www.familysearch.org and there's some entries if you type gallier in.  Entries come up as gallear, i don't know whether you got  you got your dates from there, if not it may help to see what church they were baptised at etc as there are certainly entries for what appear to be your family.

Hello I have made a little headway with the Gallier / Gallear family . I contacted Wolverhampton Archives , they could not find the family in 1841 census . However they did find the Baptisms of two older children Joseph in 1831  & Margaret in 1832 .As they are not on the 1851 census with the family we wondered if they had died in childhood .It was suggested I contact Walsall F H Centre  which I did . They had no luck with the  1841 census but found the family in 1861 census the name spelled  Galeaz .On the census was a grandaughter  Harriet  Edwards . As the only other daughter was Elizabeth who married John Sims  I realised it must be Margaret . I did a lot of record searching & sure enough she married a William Edwards  & had 7 children . So still looking and hoping I find them in 1841   Many thanks Tineke
