Emma Goldspinks

HELP!!!

Trying to find the baptism of Emma Goldspinks born abt 1832 in Norwich or the surrounding area. Also struggling to find her in 1841/1851 census. She married Charles Hammond about 1857.

Does she have brothers and sisters??

Nearest thing I can find with this surname is starting 1876 on FreeBMD, nothing before then....and I've soundexed the surname.

Any help would be very appreciated

A copy of the marriage certificate would verify her father as Thomas and also give Charles Hammond's fathers name.

Thank you all for the help....I did a surname origin search earlier and have found out that Goldspink(s) is a derivative of Goldfinch AND Goldsmith....so confusing. I think I've found her parents and brothers and sister, however, I still cant find her in 1841 or 1851.

She will forever be a brick wall I think, unless I leave it for a while then have a lightbulb moment.

Thanks for all your help though so far

1851 census Norwich, St John De Sepulchre
Lock and Key yard

Ann Lanham 48 widow  born Sutton Norfolk
Robert Goldspink  26 son
John Goldspink   22  son
Daniel Lanham 12  son

Emma's name is Emma Langham Goldspink   so is Lanham/Langham the same based on what was heard since they could not read and write? 
 

ADDED
Emma was of St John De Sepulchre 1856 when admitted to the workhouse.

Suggest you check with the Records Office to see if they have her intake record, as it establishes her birth place and parents.
