I don’t know if this will help but,
According to Genuki
St. James' church, rebuilt in 1768, is an elegant structure in the later style of English architecture. ... By charter of Elizabeth, the several parishes of St. Peter and St. Paul, or the Abbey parish, St. James, and St. Michael, were consolidated into one rectory, to which the vicarages of Widcomb and Lyncomb were annexed." [Samuel Lewis A Topographical Dictionary of England (1831) ©Mel Lockie]
Given this, is it possible that William was from St. James but was baptised at one of the other churches?
There is this baptism which matches age on death in 1840.
William Lewis
Baptism 17 Mar 1792 at Bath Abbey, Somerset,
(St Peter & St Paul Bath)
Father Thomas Lewis
Mother Mary Lewis

Hi
I have found another family that have a lot of coincidences with the family you describe.
In Liverpool in 1851, and going between areas of Manchester and Liverpool in future census records.
In 1861 in Oldham the family is Thomas and Bridget Maher, They have four visitors with the surname Wellsh. Occupation is given as factory operatives cotton.
Any link to the family you are looking for or ?
