Hi Sue,
found this for you,

Hunstanton, 1841.

Thos Wright, 40, Labourer.
Rose Wright, 39.
John Wright, 19, Labourer.
Henry Wright, 16.
Lucy Wright, 13.
Mary Ann Wright, 13.
William Wright, 11.
Samuel Wright, 9.
James Wright, 7.
Susan Wright, 5.

The ages don't tally exactly but I think it could be the same family.

Also found this marriage.

Hope this helps,

Hi Clare,

You've made somebody very happy.  It certainly looks like the right family, we've found  in other census results that ages seemed to vary,  somtimes more than this.  Thank you.
