Default Evidence-less ancestors

Has anyone else got any direct ancestors for whom they have no information other than census returns?

I have some direct ancestors - mostly in London I think - where there are no birth registrations, baptisms or marriages but I do have death certificates, burials and other stuff plus the hope of baptisms for some if RC records ever become more easily available.

But I have one 4 x great grandmother who I can only find on census, from 1851-1901, and nothing else, not even a likely death registration. I have no maiden name, no marriage, no birth registrations or baptisms for her children and so far no death or burial....
