Thank you very much Pauline, JJ & David, that is wonderful.
 Please is it possible to look at the original 1881 or 1891 census to confirm if Samuel is married? as I can’t find Elizabeth 1881?
Thank you

Presumably you've found Elizabeth Ann Burges in 1871 in Dunstable in the household of her father in law Samuel Burges 69 b Sawbridgeworth, and 8 children on familysearch? In fact when you say 1861 I think you mean 1871, and you've miscounted the number of children. Click on her name at the left to get the full family

There's a death of Elizabeth Ann Burges age 49 in Luton registration district, which includes Dunstable, in the Dec quarter 1880. Which does, of course, make a nonsense of the 1881 census.
