I can only see 2 Henry Abbotts in the 1841:

One with parents Thomas and Fanny, which you said isn't "yours", and the other as follows:-

HO107 piece 899 folio 6/3 page 1
Bog Hall, Childs Ercall

George Morgan 45 Farmer
Eliz Morgan 40
John Morgan 15
Mary Ann Morgan 13
Thos Simmister 20 M S
Henry Abbots 15 M S
Ellen Simmister 15 F S
John Naggington 13

All born in County

Bog Hall still exists today.....Hatton Road, Hinstock, Market Drayton

This is interesting thank you. Yes the Henry in Bog Hall is mine. Surprised Bog Hall is still there I wonder if its history is farming. I see there is a gap of 23 years between the John and Sarah you found. It appears they had 2 daughters 1830 and 1831. I think perhaps Henry is not on the internet but I will keep searching. Fingers crossed. Many thanks once again.

Hi LLoydy. Re your suggestion Henrys illegitimacy. Ive looked at a huge amount of Henry baptisms with just a mothers name. I then checked  the  mothers surnames with Abbots marriages but there were no matches. I was glad of your suggestion so many thanks for your thoughts. Its possible the answer is in the parish registers that are not online yet. However I'll keep on trying and if I ever solve this problem you'll be the first to know! Thanks again

Hi
I am so pleased to see this post because i am making a documentary on a family that moved from wales and ended up in passing via Telford or what was before.
The humphreys family are who i am following - and I know that George and Eliza are the mum and dad to Elizabeth Morgan who went on to marry Evan humphreys.
I am not sure how Elizabeth ended in in Montgomeryshire but she was living in or around a rather lavish property called  Brynygroed, Aberhafesp
I would like to know more about George, I know he owned a property called the Elms near shifnal and they moved into the property - Evan was a game keeper. 
What kind of man was george and how wealthy was he? How many servants did he have.
Any info would be amazing!
