Looking for Eleanor SPENDLEY / SPONDLEY in 1851

She would be about 2 years old, born Harwich
Mother  Lucy married? Robert Randall later on but Eleanor retained her surname.

thanks
Christine

Thanks Alan, much appreciated, given me something to think about - my Randalls were in the same street in 1851.  I shall now try and find her in my 1841.

UPDATE - Lucy ABLETT married John SPENDLEY at Harwich 20 August 1848.  Both fathers named John, both mariners.  Lucy's sister, Mary Ann married Thomas WHIPP (father Thomas, mariner)
