For info, the marriage that took place on 16 Jun 1830 to Francis Hopgood states that his wife was Eliza Ellen Vogler not Eliza Ann as original post

Note in margin says for Ellen Eliza read Eliza Ellen. Address is Poplar Cottage Shepherds Bush Hammersmith.

The 1851 census gives Eliza's birthplace as Westminster, NOT Switzerland which tallies with the baptism Chris Ho found:

1851 England, Wales & Scotland Census

St Anes Villa, Paddington, Kensington, Middlesex, England


Francis Hopgood Head Married Male 46 1805 Nursary Hanover Square, Glamorganshire, Wales
Eliza Hopgood Wife Married Female 50 1801 - Westminster, Middlesex, England <<
Eliza Hopgood Daughter Unmarried Female 20 1831 - Bayswater, Middlesex, England
Francis Hopgood Son Unmarried Male 17 1834 - Bayswater, Middlesex, England
Sarah Fitzgerald Servant Unmarried Female 26 1825 Servant Haddon, Middlesex, England Transcription
Elizabeth Hopwood Servant - Female 22 1829 Servant Kensington, England
John MacOrd Servant Unmarried Male 23 1828 - St Lawrence, Somerset, England
James Plane Apprentice Unmarried Male 15 1836 Apprentice Marylebone, Middlesex, England

EDIT - Not sure where the Glamorganshire bit for Francis came from, as image says he was a nursery man, and birthplace is Hannover, St George , which would tie in well with the St George, Hanover Square baptism that GlitterBaby posted earlier for Francis.

If this is the widowed Francis getting remarried in 1866, it confirms his father is named Thomas Hopgood, as per GlitterBaby's baptsim:

Name: Francis Hopgood<<<<<<<<<<<
Spouse's Name: Jane Iremonges Ingledor
Event Date: 22 May 1866
Event Place: Hammersmith, Middlesex, England
Father's Name: Thomas Hopgood<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Spouse's Marital Status: Widowed
Indexing Project (Batch) Number: M01168-0 , System Origin: England-EASy , GS Film number: 1966293 , Reference ID: 436

These might be Eliza Ellen's parents as per the baptism Chris Ho suggested for her:

Looks like Francis did remarry to Jane Iremonges Ingledor as I speculated previously (giving his father as Thomas Hopgood)
