Hi Trisha
I have found a John Ragsdell living in West Street, Oundle in 1851.
It is rather a mixed household, but here are the details:

Elizabeth Wallis - head - widow - 51 - Pauper - born Pillon (lloks like), N'hants
John Ragsdell - Lodger - married - 23 - born abt 1828 in Oundle - House Broker
Eleanor - wife - 22 - born Oundle
George Fletcher (or Fitcher as in details) - lodger - 2 - born Oundle
Alfred Fletcher (or Hetchess as in details) - 5 months - born Oundle
James Waller - 15 - errand boy - Middlesex London (I think)

Reference H.O.107/1746

The writing is quite flowery and not as easy to read as it looks at first glance.

Hope this helps a little and that it is the correct person Jenn
