Part of Whitford, Flintshire is missing from the 1861 census, so it's possible that Ishmael is in that missing bit.

Google suggests that Wirn should be Wern. Ah, and I see from Googling that you have the same query on Rootschat and someone on there already found Robert and his family at Wern in 1851, so we won't need to search the 1851 for them any more.

I unfortunately don't have the marriage of Ishmael's father, the only cert i have is the birth cert of Ishmael's son Edward

I was a bit confused with the links with Owens/Williams, I am assuming that the children With the surname Jones are those of Robert & Susannah,

I guess with the number of Jones' about in Flintshire (around 20% of the population carried that surname in the Victorian era) you will not ever be able to sort out the right baptism for the dozens of wrong ones, plus the majority of North wales has very few records available online.

When the Welsh parish registers do go online in the next year or two, it should hopefully be a bit easier to find the right baptisms because there may be info such as abode, father's occupation, etc which are not given on indexes and transcriptions.
I wouldn't be surprised if Elizabeth Owens turns out to be Robert and Susannah's daughter married to John Owens, and Alice Williams could be the daughter of another married daughter. Yes, it is going to be tricky to trace people back with a name like Jones. I'll see if I can find anything, though.

Oh, I forgot that Susannah's maiden name was Owens. It could be that John Owens is a relative of hers, then.
