OPR indexes show various births to a couple with these names. Do you already have details of same?

Sarah & James had 8 children in the Glasgow, first Gorbals then Barony between 1792 & 1807.
Death records before statutory registration began in 1855 in Barony only
1805 – 1835. By then Sarah would be about 65.
I do not see a death for Sarah in the above period or on the 1841 census. However is the James I wonder (on freereg)?
1841 Laundressey Street, Barony
ROBERTSON James 75 Grocer Lanarkshire
ROBERTSON Margaret 45 Lanarkshire
RUSSELL William 40 Coal Miner Lanarkshire
RUSSELL Sarah 45 Lanarkshire
RUSSELL Janet 15 Female Servant Lanarkshire
Sarah’s eldest daughter below would be 49 in 1841; this would be rounded down to 45.
ROBERTSON MARGARET JAMES ROBERTSON/SARAH KING 16/04/1792 GORBALS

Sarah Russell, other name Robertson, mmn King, died in 1880 in Old Monkland - worth a look?
Sarah Robertson married William Russell in Gorbals in 1827. Looks like the rest of the household in that 1841 census.
