Whilst checking I found a lot more Stringers around Rowley and Blackheath.
e.g. Sarah Stringer and Elizabeth Stringer born 1826.
Sarah aged 24 Old Hill married a Timothy Smith aged 21 Old Hill ( another Stringer marrying a Timothy Smith) on 22/6/1846 her father Thomas Stringer, his father Joseph Smith
Also found 1841 Census for James and Elizabeth under Clarke

Hi Mumbles, Thomas Stringer is my Gt Gt Gt Grandfather, born 1792 son of Samuel born 1767. Sarah who Married Timothy Smith is his daughter so is Elizabeth born abt. 1826, she Married John Homer. Will keep looking for your Elizabeth, best wishes from Linell.

Before this is archived, I think the witness at Elizabeth Stringer's Marriage to Thomas Hipkiss, Issac Priest, is maybe a brother. There is an extracted baptism for Issac Priest 1.1.1797 RR to a Joseph and Sarah Priest, this fits with him being a Marriage Witness 20+ years later. Then Sarah Priest wife of Wm is visiting Thomas and Elizabeth Hipkiss in 1851, Thomas and Elizabeth had a son Issac, so there is some Priest connection there. Elizabeth does not seem to be from a 'conventional' family. Just my thoughts, best wishes from Linell.
