I'm assuming you are hoping William Walker, Richard Barrett's step-father, is your William, son of Richard and Ellen Walker mantioned earlier in this thread?
You are going to need to either find a marriage for this William to see who he names as his father, or eliminate William Walker baptised in Wigan in 1821, son of John and Elizabeth, as these two Williams are too close in age for comfort!

That's why you need to learn other methods if you don't have access to the page. For instance, if you use FreeBMD and search Richard Ba*t in Wigan for 1850-1851 there is only the one birth registration and that is the one I posted here earlier. Birth registrations are less likely to have errors than census records (think about how the information is collected and recorded), so once you know his name is likely to be a speling of Barrett and not a spelling of Barnett you have a better chance of finding him on the earlier census on Family Search which I know doesn't always like to give you all the variables!

I checked the 1841 census ther is a group of eleven people mostly irish , living in Bradshaw gate wigan . Richard barrat and mary are their with a child James doesn't give age of child . So i presume the child's only a few months old .

Surely, given the 1851 family have children Thomas 14, Michael 10 and John 8 all born in Ireland, they are going to be in Ireland in 1841?
James (the son in the other family in 1841) is aged 2 months.

In post #66 you actually mention this family in the 1851 census - they are the family in Liverpool!
