Trying to tie up a few loose ends, I see that I was never able to find 4xg aunt

Amelia on 1841 census.

Amelia Julia Headland, b 1827 Clerkenwell, parents Thomas & Christiana.

By 1841, older siblings had married & moved from home, but younger ones

Emma Eliza & Alfred James Samuel were with parents in Chapel St, Islington.

In 1851 Amelia is with older sister Charlotte Christiana, now married to

Benjamin Collins, & younger sister Emma Eliza in St Chad's Row - all are

milliners & Amelia is shown as "head."By 1861 she had emigrated to New

Zealand where she founded a dynasty of around twelve & died aged 98!

Could anyone please see if they have better luck than me?

I can't find anything under Headland or variants (on either Ancestry of FMP). The nearest is this:

Maybe in one of the missing bits of the census.
