Mary Ascroft can not find any record in last name

Question

In the Sheffield 1861 census I have found that Mary's mothers name is Ann Ascroft not Oscroft as previously recorded so I have been researching but to no end Mary's record I have found a record of christening dated 22 June 1826 with farther's name William Ashcroft (note the H) in the name but not in the 1861 census mothers name is Ann Ascroft. I can not find records of marriage to Hatfield-4067 or any other information. Secondly I was following the linage of Mary's parents of William Oscroft Oscroft-4 and his wife Sophia Shenter-1 but this could be the wrong linages the name is similar but not the same .So could anyone help try to sort this out.  I do realise that the spelling is from the person filling out the census and how that person spelt things as most people in 1800 didn't have schooling and singed with a mark or x

Answer 1

All I could find, 2 girls similar names different parents

Answer 2

The births of her children were both registered with a mother's maiden name of Oscroft so I'd take that as the primary spelling.
