Find Ancestors

I'm fairly new to this and am struggling to trace details for a Charles Beauchamp (either he disappears off census records or his place of birth changes - I had it down as West Dean but then am unable to find West Dean anywhere) but understand that this could be classified under Salisbury, Stockbridge or Wiltshire

Charles Beauchamp (c.1845) married Emily (??) (??)
Children - Charles (1872), Sidney (1876), Florence (1877), Mary (1880), Daisy (1883)
Sidney (1876) married Agnes Harrison (1875)
Children - Dorothy (1901), Sidney (1902), Beatrice (1905), John (1907), Ethel (1911)

John (1907) is my Grandfather

Many thanks

well the marriage for Charles to Emily should be on FreeBMD and the cert should name his father ,if known.
One of the childrens birth certs too will show her maiden name

West Dean is to the east of Salisbury. There is also a West Dean in West Sussex, north of Chichester.
