I am sure it is Elizabeth so the 1861 census showing Joseph and Eliza must be the correct one.
Many thanks again ladies

I am trying to find Joseph in the 1861 census. He was born 1830 in Kensington, London and I know he died in 1867 in Kensington district. but he married in 1855 also Kensington and I would like to know his wifes name and any children there may have been.
Many thanks in anticipation.
