In 1871 Richard (b 1862) is with his parents.

In 1881 there is a Richard b Ormskirk, collier living as a boarder in Skelmersdale. As in 1871 your Richard was the only one that said b Ormskirk and there is only the one Richard Robinson b Ormskirk on the 1881 census too, I thought this was probably your Richard. However in 1891 (where there is also only the one Richard R born Ormskirk of the right age, again a collier) this Richard is with his mother and she doesn't fit well with being your Jane as she is Sarah J Robinson, a bit younger than your Jane and says born Scarisbrick not Ormskirk (I realise that's not far away). The problem is, I can't find this Richard with mother Sarah in 1871 so can't eliminate him.
