I couldnt see another one.
Sarah Bedworth is on the page previous to Thomas and family on the 1851 census.

When looking I did come across this family too, not sure if its just a coincidence but Parsons is a surname of a witness and Downing family living with each other.
1851. Gorsty Hill, The Hill,
John Downing, head, 34, Labourer, Rowley
Esther, wife, 34, Nailer, Rowley
David, son, 2,
Isaac, son, 2 months,
Pricilla Parsons, daur in law, 11
