Indeed! But the enumerator has rather mangled the name.   ;)

Think this could be Elizabeth's family in 1851, brother Job also a brickmaker, sister Ellen born in Rouen, France.

There's a likely marriage for James Waring and Elizabeth Goodman in Leicester in 1857; and a death and burial for James Waring aged 59 in 1859.

Not sure now about that baptism for Elizabeth. The possible 1851 family seems to be children of George, brickmaker, & Elizabeth Goodman. But no baptism for an Elizabeth unless the John was an error, it's the only one with John & Elizabeth as parents.
Birth reg for Thomas has mother's maiden name of Wilson.

Marriage St Margaret's Leicester 24 Jan 1825 of George Goodman & Elizabeth Wilson, witnesses Job Goodman & Maria Waring.
The certificate for the second marriage would help for this.
Baptism of first child 8 June 1825 Blaby Richard son of George, brickmaker, and Elizabeth Goodman of St Margaret's Leicester.

Meanwhile, still haven't found Elizabeth's marriage to Joseph or the 1851 census for them.

I had a look for Richard Lewin, born Burton Overy ( nephew 1851 with Elizabeth Goodman) and a baptism 2 Nov 1834 has parents Samuel and Hannah, Burton Overy. Hoping I am on the right lines, Samuel and Hannah are in Leicester from 1851, and Samuel is in the workhouse 1871.

The only marriage I can find so far is a Samuel Lewin bach. to a Hannah Willson sp. both otp., transcription only, at Knighton 23 Oct 1820.

and at Welford Road Cemetery, Leicester

Q 1089
Richard Lewin 23 Dec 1866 age 32 Wheat Street
Hannah Lewin 13 Jun 1869 age 72
Samuel Lewin 26 Mar 1873 age 75 Leicester Union House
