Thank you everyone.
Sarah Mullett in the 1840 Census is John Mullett's wife. At least 20 years his junior. Her maiden name was Bird. Among the children in 1841 is their son John b. 1819 shown as 1820 in the census. My understanding is that he married Elizabeth Wood at St. Thomas Dudley on 18th October 1841. Their only child a daughter Eliza Mullett b. 1840 d. 1841. Both are also shown on the 1841 census along with John Mullett and his family.
Eliza Southall is not a name I recognise as John Mullett's (1819) wife. Perhaps there was more than one John Mullett?
Among the marriages of John and Sarah Mulletts children are Susannah married Zachariah Edwards in 1851 St. Thomas, Eliza Mullett married Isaiah Jones in 1844, Staffordshire, Joseph Mullett married Mary Williams in 1850 Staffordshire, Henry Mullett married Ann Carmichael in St. Thomas in 1849 and Phoebe Mullett married Isaiah Rhodes in Dudley in 1855.
If there is any chance of tracking info about John Mullett (1780-81) parents Samuel and Sarah or any siblings it would push my research further. I don't know if Samuel and Sarah lived in Dudley or indeed where they came from.
Thank you for your help.
