1841 Census Lookup please

[Denise Thompson]

I am searching for William Rosser, born abt 1765 in Gloucestershire, probably at Ruardean or Lydbrook. As an adult he moved to Hereford where he operated as a barge owner, and perhaps as a publican. I cannot find him, but there is a William Prosser of the right age, living at Ross in 1841. I would appreciate a lookup for this William Prosser please.

Hello Pam,
Thank you for your reply. Yes I do have the 1851 Census record for William Rosser, and he is the correct person.
On the Findmypast 1841 Census Index is the following:

Household PROSSER, William 1765 76  M Ross Herefordshire

I subscribe to Findmypast and to the 1911 Census website but there is a problem with my accessing it. My email address and password are not being accepted, and I am currently in conversation with both websites, hoping to fix the problem which probably relates to my ISP. If you have ready access to the 1841 Census I would appreciate your trying again please, otherwise I will wait until I can access it myself.
Regards,
Denise

Thank you very much Barbara. He is not my William Rosser who is proving elusive.
Regards, Denise

I didn't think he would be, wrong occupation 

Do you have the 1841 for the family he was living with in 1851?

Hello Barbara,
The good news is that I now have access to the Censuses. I believe that in the 1851 Census William Rosser was living alone, next door to Joshua Prosser and his family. The record shows 28 and 29 Eign Street, then 30 Clarence Place (where Joshua lived) and 31 where William lived. By that time his wife and one daughter had died and his second daughter and her husband and family were living in Australia (her husband having been transported).
Last night I downloaded an 1841 Census record which could be his, but it is so faded it is almost impossible to read.
RG number:

Willm Prosser (?), M, aged 76, Born Herefordshire (mine was born in Gloucestershire). He was living with the family of George Bowen. I cannot make out his occupation.


Thank you and Pam once again.
