For reference, this is the family on the 1861 census. There is a big gap in age between Jane and the other two children which would suggest that Samuel was married before or that Elizabeth had a child when she was very young (she would have had to have married as a minor for it to be in wedlock) who then took the surname Bradbury when Elizabeth married Samuel.

I've checked the IGI batch numbers for Mossley and it only seems to cover births up to 1821 which would be too early for Elizabeth. Looks like a trip to the records office will be required. Where did you get the surname Hibbert from? Do you have the marriage cert for Samuel & Elizabeth?

P.S. - If not, do you have them on any other census?

Hi
Where did you get the birth dates from? Do you know their parents' names? Have you tried looking on the IGI which can be accessed at www.familysearch.org (select advanced search and then select International Genealogist Index from the list on the left. There are a lot of matches for your names in approx the correct places but most of them seem to be submitted by church members. From experience, these can be inaccurate and should always be treated with caution. You can also check which churches etc are covered by the site and the date periods using this site (this should be one long string but I'll have to split it so that it doesn't mess the page width)

www.familysearch.org

The above is the home of the IGI, you will most probably find some data on there...
