I can see what appears to be the correct family in the 1851 census living at Mona, Cerrigceinwen, Anglesey, Wales

John Hughes Ellis, b.1799, Jane Ellis b.1801 and their three children, Grace Jones b.1834, William b.1844 and Elizabeth b.1848

This looks to be Elizabeth's birth record from the GRO:-

ELLIS, ELIZABETH       JONES 
GRO Reference: 1847  D Quarter in OF THE ANGLESEY UNION  Volume 27  Page 345
 
I'll see if I can find them in 1841.

We have John and Jane and the children are William b.1839, Magred b.1830, Anne b.1832, Grace b.1834 and Elizabeth b.1836.

I suspect Magred  is a short form of Margaret.  This appears to be her baptism:-

At St. Mary & St. Nicholas, Beaumaris on 8 June 1829.  Name is given as Margaret and parents are John and Jane Ellis.

This is from a transcription on FreeReg.
