Have you been to Gloucester record office? searched indexes etc? or newspapers for deaths?
There was a lot of "traffic" across the Severn in that area with small boats and ferries operating, but as you say his death apparently not recorded, which is odd. If he had been transported/locked up wife might have described herself as a widow. Have you checked emigration records to America?

I agree that seems to be the only way I am likely to get a result, so when I get the opportunity I will arrange to visit Gloucester Archives . I'll try their Index system first otherwise it will be a long haul looking through newspapers over a period of ten years.
Thanks for you advise.

Tuthill.
