If Julia ran off she may have lived with a new partner and assumed his name which wouldn't be searchable unless you know the guys name she went off with

I guess it's not her, she gives father's name as William Walford.

Mind you, she says she's a widow so how can her father have same surname?

hi margee

its very odd but julia's children were brought up by william welford when she left them and he was a carpenter like the father on julia walford's marriage cert. and there is no birth for her in 1840-1841 so it could that it was her married name

thank you for your help this family is a right mystery to me lol
i dont think that julia's father married a thomas trying to find out if frances perkins died or she left him between the 1841 and 1851 census also there might have been other children born to samuel and frances because of the age between the girls births 11 years
