There is a possible marriage of son, Amos, to Elizabeth Robins in Old Swinford on 23 September 1872 and from census records they seem to have had at least 4 children ; Thomas (1874), Ann M (1875), Amos (1878-1940) and Ann (1896).

The marriage certificate for Ann Maria and John Guest clearly states that she was a widow at the time, which is consistent with THE Amos being the one who died in 1854. The death certificate would resolve this.
The KENDRICK family of Ann Maria is father Joseph and mother Ann Louisa HARPER; Joseph and Ann Louisa were married in Clent on 8 August 1830.
The family are shown in Two Gates, Cradley in both the 1841 and 1851 censuses and the first '1857 Notebook of Reverend Thompson' shows that Joseph and Ann were still living in Two Gates, Cradley (on the north side of the lane) with their daughter, Maria Hughes ('Widow') and their grandson, Amos Hughes (born abt 1854), plus their own children, Solomon, William, Alfred and Leah.
A copy of the birth certificate of daughter LEAH shows she was born in Two Gates, Cradley on 6 December 1851 and that her mother was Ann Louisa Kendrick formerly HARPER; her father is confirmed as JOSEPH KENDRICK, Nailer.
Perhaps someone can find a link between Joseph and the other Kendricks that you have identified.
