This Edward is a gardener in 1841, but no Henry though:

Edward Liddiard
Age: 35
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1806
Gender: Male
Where born: Berkshire, England

Civil parish: Hungerford
Hundred: Kintbury Eagle
County/Island: Berkshire
Country: England

Edward Liddiard 8
William Liddiard 7
Sarah Liddiard 6
George Liddiard 4
Ann Liddiard 3
Edgar Liddiard 4 Mo

All born in county.

Added, maybe Henry's mother was Mary Ann?

Looks like 2 Henry's christened around the right time, this one could be your Henry:

Henry Liddiard
Gender: Male
Christening Date: 20 Aug 1826
Christening Place: Aldbourne, Wiltshire, England
Father's Name: Edward Liddiard
Mother's name: Mary

The other one christened in Nov, father James, mother Anne. It could be his marriage to Leah and subsequent death in a shipwreck.

Really need some feedback from Colin to know if we have the right Henry.

Added: Forget this, I've just noticed it is Wiltshire, not Berkshire - think I'm cracking up :-0

Looks like Corn Merchant to me; father Edward is Seedsman.

Could this be Henry's marriage to Phillis - she was born Herts according to the 1861 census posted earlier:

Henry Liddiard
Age: Full Age
Spouse Name: Phillis Ashby
Record Type: Marriage
Event Date: 12 Jun 1854
Parish: St Andrew by the Wardrobe
Borough: City of London
Father Name: Edward Liddiard
Spouse Father Name: William Ashby
Register Type: Parish Register

I think he was a corn merchant, but image is not very good. But the date ties in well with their oldest child from the census

Hello I'm trying to find details of GGG Grandfather Edward Liddiard around 1800. Berkshire/Wilkshire. Been looking for proof that he lost his first wife Mary and remarried a Sarah, hence he had two sets of children.
My GG Grandfather being Henry born Hungerford 1823.
