Hi Mac
Have you checked on Freecen for the family
http://freecen.rootsweb.com/
It now has 100% coverage of the 1841 Ayrshire census and up to 98% of the 1851 census.
One point to remember with the 1841 census is that ages were supposed to be rounded down the nearest 5 years for everyone over 15 years old. For example, William aged 42 may show as William aged 40 (as will his brothers). Sometimes enumerators put down actual reported age rather than following the 1841 census instruction.
