Could someone please help me with a census lookup for 1841/1851

I know on the 1881 census Mary had place of birth Bridgham, norfolk, and age 56.

The baptism records for Bridgham church have been transcribed and she doesn't appear there. I am trying to find her parents, so am looking for a Mary Self PROBABLY in the Guiltcross/Wayland/Thetford districts on the early censuses before she married and became Mary Tillott.

any info greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Oops stop press.... she had her first child 1849 so likely to have been married, so only the 1841 census will be relevant.
