That would mean they should be on the 1881 census together too if we can find them!

Thank you both,
it may well be, i am not sure how to check the Pershore area, I haven't found them together on the 1881 Census i need to look again.
thank you

This looks like these in 1881 but whether they are the right couple I don't know
1881 73, King Edmund Street, Dudley (Worcs)
RANDELL, Wm Head Married M 26 1855 Groom (N D) Pershore Worcestershire
RANDELL, Harriet Wife Married F 25 1856 Bredicote Worcestershire
RANDELL, Rosa M Daughter Single F 1 1880 Dudley Worcestershire
BYRAN, Frank Lodger Single M 21 1860 Groom (N D) Kenilworth Warwickshire

Thanks again, my William and harriet had a daughter Hannah aged 9 in 1881she could have had an older sister who died. and the census of 1891 records that both William nad Harriet were born in tipton Staffs, although I suppose that could be wrong, I,ve come to the conclusion that people told the census enumerator anything that came into their heads.
I will have a look onBMD and look at the names of Randle females born 1887 - 1882.
