Trying to find Wood

I have been researching my great, great grandfather's family tree. He was Charles Wood born in Leeds Yorkshire in c1833 and the son of Thomas and Ann both born in 1811. He had a brother called George c1830 and two sisters Sarah c1836 and Elizabeth c1839. I am trying to trace Sarah after she was married. Charles married Maria Hardaker b1835 and they had eight children ; Annie F, Emily, Eliza, William, Albert, Thomas, Walter and Clara Louise.The five older children were born in Leeds but then Charles moved to Bramley were he was a Lock Keeper at Kirstall Locks. Both Charles and Maria had died before the 1881 census. I have tracked down some of the children in this year but am unsure of Eliza b1866, William b1868 and Walter b1875 whereabouts . If anybody can shed any light please contact me.
