Just wondering if this is the Hannah Evans from the 1861 census:-

1841

Age: 9
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1832
Gender: Female
Where born: Shropshire, England

Civil parish: Ellesmere
Hundred: Pimhill (Ellesmere Division)
County/Island: Shropshire
Country: England

Street Address:

Registration district: Ellesmere
Sub-registration district: Ellesmere
Neighbors: View others on page
Household Members:
Name Age
Samuel Evans 30 born: Shropshire (Ag.Lab.)
Elizabeth Evans 30 born: Shropshire
Mary Evans 12
Hannah Evans 9
William Evans 5
Elizabeth Evans 2
Ann Evans 6 Mo

The christening for these children are Ellesmere, so.......could be!
EDWARD EVANS - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Male Christening: 04 OCT 1829 Ellesmere, Shropshire, England
WILLIAM EVANS - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Male Christening: 03 OCT 1836 Ellesmere, Shropshire, England
HANNAH EVANS - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Female Christening: 20 JUL 1834 Ellesmere, Shropshire, England
ANNE EVANS - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Female Christening: 13 DEC 1840 Ellesmere, Shropshire, England
ELIZABETH EVANS - International Genealogical Index

MARGARET EVANS - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Female Christening: 27 MAY 1832 Ellesmere, Shropshire, England
Death: 03 DEC 1836

Unfortunately there isn't the christening for Thomas, but the marriage cert. will confirm, or not, if his fathers name was Samuel!

Was his brother Edward?

You need to start by buying the marriage cert. which should give you their father's names.
