OGILVIE south shields

[compo]

my 3x great grandparents duncan and jane ogilvie nee johnson married in south shields sometime in the late 1840's
i cannot find them at all in any census for south shields ,i would love to know duncan ogilvie's place of birth ,duncan has listed as donkin on some of their childrens christening records and i know some of their children married in south shields but i am confused as to why i cant find them in census
some of their kids were
ann or annie duncan /donkin ogilvie
john jefferson ogilvie
possibly a hannah ogilvie

faithfully

I think I found him in the 1841 census but no way to really tell.  I could not find him in the 1841 Scotland census

he is a boarder of a sort, cannot read the occupation though

There is one entry for a Duncan Ogilvie on the Scotland's People website for a baptism from the years 1818-1823.  This is a pay per view site.
