And you have to recall that even in 'affluent' areas there may be streets of much less affluent households where servants and tradesmen lived. 

I have a few records in Marylebone, Hanover Square etc where my ancestors are anything but high class.

Baptism of Sarah Gough born 30 March 1835 daughter of James and Rachel at West Twyford, Ealing on 10 May 1835.  James is a victualler, as he is in baptism records of his and Rachel's other children at West Twyford or Ealing, including the two Rachels, and Eliza.
Thank you I will look into this, it certainly is a mine field

For info. there is a public tree on Ancestry for the above family with census info. etc. you would need to verify info....

John Gough
1827–1886

married 1850 Jael Carter
   

Mary Gough
1831–1856

Burial 13 Jul 1856 age 25
   

James Gough

spouse William John Newell

The Will of James Gough late of Ealing  beer-seller died 25 Dec 1878 at Ealing
Probate 13 Jan 1879 William Newell, baker

EDIT to add - perhaps the above death of Mary Gough in 1856 is incorrect  :-\

Rachel LEMM and her son Edward are living with her married sister Mary
and her husband John MARTIN  (bricklayer) on 1861 c RG 9; Piece: 782; Folio: 40; Page: 2

There is this 1856 marriage
John MARTIN , bricklayer to Mary GOUGH father JAMES Gough occupation Labourer
One witness  James NEWTON

and

1891 c RG12; Piece: 1039; Folio: 4; Page: 1
Mary MARTIN born Ealing has visitors
Alice NEWELL single age 17 Ealing and Alice Newell 1 week

Not investigated but I think Alice (age 17) is the daughter of William &  Eliza Newell (nee Gough)

I see on that Ancestry tree that they have Sarah as dying in 1862,  the burial for that death is on Deceased online

SARAH GOUGH
burial date 19 April 1862
location Kensington And Chelsea
There is one other burial in that grave.

Thank you, I don't think that is her, she was still a live in 1871 in sandiacre, supposedly the wife of Robert Francis Thurston. With help from here it has also all fallen into place, she actually used her mums maiden name of Newton as she wasn't married.

You really need to eliminate that death in order to discount the Gough line with mothers maiden name Newton that has been suggested

Possibly of interest.  James and Rachael Gough have two daughters born after civil registration began, both are with them on the 1851 census. One (I'm unsure of her name; it looks like Rachael, but also looks different from her mother's name) aged 11 and Eliza aged 9. Both born in Ealing, which is in Brentford district.

GRO index shows a Rachel Gough Mmn Newton registered Dec Q 1837 in Brentford district, and a death of a Rachel Gough age 0 in March Q 1838.   In September Q there is an unnamed female Gough child Mmn Newton registered.  Eliza remains elusive, unfortunately - but at this early time not all births were registered.

James and Rachael Gough name their birthplaces as Heath, Oxfordshire, and Hughendon, Buckinghamshire respectively. 
A Rachel Newton daughter of Thomas and Rachel was baptised at Hughendon  on 17 April 1801 (Rachael is aged 50 in 1851).

I can't see a marriage, but if it was in Buckinghamshire, it may not be online.
Thank you for this, it all seems to fit, and makes a lot of sense
