Hi jregusci
Welcome to rootschat.  You might be better starting a new thread for this on the Westmorland Look ups board.  Put the names in the title.  Unfortunately Bell and Robinson are very common names in that area - there are hundreds of them so give as much information as you can.   Westmoralnd is a large county too.  Have you looked at www.familysearch.org?  The combination of Blades and Robinson might be a very helpful clue.  How annoying that Margaret was born just before civil registration started.  Do you think they married in the UK?  Yes - they did.  Found it on FreeBMD.   William Bell and Margaret Blades Robinson Apr/Jun 1859 Ulverston 8e 839.  Your best bet will be to order that certificate as it will give the names and occupations of both fathers and then you might find them on the census for 1851.  Ulverston registration district covers quite a wide area.
