Elizabeth Bampfield married Ambrose Yardley, 1853 (see other thread).

She was bapt 2 Jul 1829, Kingswinford, dau of Isaac Bamfield & Elizabeth

Marriage:
11 Dec 1825, St Mary, Handsworth
Isaac Bamfield & Elizabeth Bishop

Then we have the following interesting census entry:

1851, Amblecote
Isaac Bamfield, Head, 52, Carpenter, Sidmouth, Devon
Elizabeth, Wife, 45, Chaddesley Corbett
Mary A, Dau, 24, Churchill, Worcestershire
Cecelia, Dau, 8, Amblecote, Staffordshire
John, Son, 4, Amblecote, Staffordshire
Thomas Bishop, Father in Law, 75, Retired Labourer, kidderminster

Can't find Isaac in 1861, but in 1871 we have:
1871, Stourbridge
Isiux (sic- is this a mistranscription on FamilySearch),Head, 72, Carpenter, Sidmouth, Devon
William Higgs, Lodger, 43, Shoemaker, Amblecote, Staffordshire
Mary A Higgs, Wife, 44, Churchill, Worcestershire
Maria Cartwright, Gr Dau, 13, Amblecote, Staffordshire

1881, Amblecote
William Higgs, Head, 53, Shoe Maker, Amblecote
Mary Ann Higgs, Wife, Churchill, Worcestershire
Isaac Bampfield, Boarder, 82, Sidmouth, Devon

From the above I think Isaacs daughter Mary Ann married William Higgs: will look for a marriage...

I think this is probably Isaac: (Note Salcombe Regis is a village right next to Sidmouth):
Bapt 10 Feb 1799, Salcombe Regis, Isaac son of John & Mary Bamfield

Marriage 1869, Stourbridge, St John the Evangelist
William Higgs & Mary Ann Bampfield

For the sake of completeness, possibly Isaacs parents marriage:
7 Feb 1780, Salcombe Regis, Devon
John Bampfield & Mary Wishlade

William Higgs:

Think this is him:

1851, Amblecote
Thomas Mansell, head, 31, Engineer, Shifnal, Shropshire
Phoebe Mansell, wife, 47
William Higgs, step son, 23, Shoe Maker
Margaret Higgs, step dau, 20
Joseph Higgs, step son, 17, Labourer at Iron Works
Phoebe Higgs, step dau, 15
Richard Wilcox, Relative, 24, Coal Miner
Rest born Amblecote

Isaac Bampfield was living at Bouchall, Stourbridge in 1861 (I think this is somewhere between Stourbridge and Stambermill)
