The Bap for Elisha 1.1.1815 says illigitimate son of Sarah Willetts Rowley Nailer, where as the other Elisha Bap 19.6.1814 is the son of Joseph and Elizabeth Willetts of Dudley, wonder if this is a different couple from the Joseph and Elizabeth below, due to the gap from Elisha 1814 to Daniel 1820? Or did Joseph and Elizabeth move from Dudley to Rowley?

1841 and 1851 census looks like the same Elisha, it looks like Martha died after the 1841 census.
West Midlands Death, 1844.
WILLETTS Martha. Rowley Regis. Sandwell Register Office. RR/4/157.

On the 1851 census Elisha and Mary are at schedule number 25 and Elish and Sushannah are at schedule 17. The 1841 census Elisha and Martha are on enumeration schedule 44 and Elisha and Hannah on 43. So just a few houses away.

Joseph son of Elisha and Martha died measles 28/121842. age 3yrs 10months
