Family keep appearing and disappearing !!!

Hi
I am struggling with the Staffordshire census.....1851 1861 1871  I am tracing a line for Ann Chancellor, she appears then disappears, as does her father.

Her father is William and Ann was born in Darlaston ( waiting for a certificate ) 1852. Married James Davies in Newcastle u Lyme 19 Feb 1871.. Her father was a blacksmith as was James'

I cannot get back further than the 1871 census to track the ancesters. There is a blacksmith in 1841 but cannot be sure its the right one. In 1871 they lived with a relative Bailey Street once they married.

I have tried various sites for the census, made the name varient  widened the dates to no avail. I cannot understand why I cannot find William in 1871 or 1861 then 1851  or Ann in 1861 they have to be there.... can you tell me any other ways to look up please......I m stumped and its not even close to the end of civil registration ..

Thanks

I v e seen that Heywood and noted it... I cannot find anything for william 1871... or the family in 1861 when Ann would be nine... it has to be there some where.. I did wonder if they got damaged or something, but don t want to give up yet

You have 1861 also now but as yet I can't see them in 1871

It would appear that William died 1875 and Sarah (wife) died 1876 so they should be around for the 1871

Thanks,, its very strange, I saw the servant one but it did not click in. They were definitely around for the wedding. The 1841... I feel confident on that one. but I wish I could fill it for definate with the in between years. .. Find it so strange,,,
