Hi Kaye, yes I think Pricilla was born before the Marriage, may not be James Basterfield's daughter though

Your 1861 has brother Gideon in the household.
Jan I think James born 1815 is the son of Joseph and Mary:-
1851 Islington, Halesowen
James Basterfield Head 36 Bricklayer - Nail Maker b. Halesowen
Elizabeth Basterfield Wife 35 Nail Maker b. Halesowen
Sarah Basterfield Daur 14 Nail Maker b. Halesowen
Gideon Basterfield Son 10 Scholar b. Halesowen
Joseph Basterfield Son 7 Scholar b. Halesowen
Benjamin Basterfield Son 4 b. Halesowen
Maria Basterfield Daur 1 b. Halesowen
He has a sons Joseph and Benjamin which are family names or Basterfield names

Just realised that Joseph son of James and Elizabeth is with Grandparents Joseph and Mary in 1861:-
In 1861 there is a Joseph Bastable (Basterfield) Son aged 18, must be Grandson? Son of son James Basterfield and Elizabeth Franklin.
Islington Halesowen
JOSEPH BASTABLE Head Married 80 yrs
MARY BASTABLE Wife Married 70 yrs
ELIZABETH BASTABLE Daughter Unmarried 29 yrs
JOSEPH BASTABLE Son Unmarried 18 yrs
This ties James to Parents Joseph and Mary............
