Have you found them in 1851, or 1861?
Perhaps Richard died and she remarried?

There are 2 Johns born Shrewsbury, so it's going to be hard to find him on a census.

He's on 2 trees on Ancestry but both have different parents.

Have to say, I've yet to see a tree on Ancestry that isn't full of errors.
