The census lists Mary as born in Maer so this could be her birth with father William re the 1851 census. The surname in 1851 does look like Martin

I am trying to trace these two ancestors of mine but I am not having much luck. According to someone else on Genes Reunited they married on the 24/11/1833 in Mucclestone, Staffordshire, but the problem is I have not been able to find thier marriage myself. I have found them on the 1841, 51, 61 and 71 census so have all of their children but I can't seem to find their parents. This is what I have so far

Father: James , Mother: Mary
Exact Spelling: Off
Batch Number: C010262

7. PETER JERVIS - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Male Christening: 15 APR 1855 Mucklestone, Stafford, England

8. BETSEY JERVIS - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Female Christening: 23 FEB 1840 Mucklestone, Stafford, England

9. FANNY JERVIS - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Female Christening: 26 JUL 1857 Mucklestone, Stafford, England
Note: from a census there is a Fanny born in 1846 so either the parents took 10yrs to baptise her or the first Fanny died

On the 1851 census there is a William Jervis or Martin (it's unclear), aged 78, widower, living with James and Mary so he could either of their fathers.

Also on the 1851 census a John Matin, aged 11, born Maer, apprentice, is living with James and Mary Jervis. I am assuming he is a relation of Mary but I haven't yet been able to discover their exact relationship. In 1861 census he is living with a Joseph Bunn (46, agricultural labourer) and a Jane Bunn (45). I am assuming Jane is some relation to James or Mary, although again I have not been able to trace exactly what relation yet.

Also on the 1861 census, living 3 doors down from James and Mary Jervis, is a William Jervis (aged 66, Shoemaker), his wife Hannah (aged 64) and their children William (aged 28, bootmaker) and Ellen (aged 22, bootbinder) all born in staffordshire. I am assuming William is some relation to James Jervis but as I haven't yet traced Jame's parents I don't yet know what the exact relationship is.
