On Family Search the 1861 census in Liverpool there are two Mary Bamber’s
The one I thought was married to Joseph is noted as age 47 (1814) Widow, Charwoman, a Visitor, born Liverpool. I believe her daughter Mary is with her, she is noted as age 21 General Servant but no relationship mentioned to the other Mary, so I may be wrong?
However Mary junior did not marry Peter Johnson until 1868, soat the age of 15 where was she?

The other Mary posted by ShaunJ in 1861 on Family Search is age 56 (1805), widow born Hundall, Westmorland
Which given the later census returns I think is probably the correct one, albeit strange that earlier information suggests born Liverpool.
Either way still no birth record for Mary Prickett?
