Try looking at the FOD records for marriages/then census of the siblings.

Had a quick look at Elizabeth born 1793 in Newent (daughter of John/Elizabeth - and found a marriage 13 September 1816 in Newent to William COLEMAN - one of the witnesses was Chas DAVIS (assume Charles her brother c1795).

Charles DAVIS (again Son of John/Elizabeth) married Elizabeth VINER in Newent 28 July 1818 and (using the Advanced Search) found two Sons christened in Newent, Daniel 1819, and Charles 1821

Now.... this Charles DAVIS and Elizabeth are on the 1851 census are in Upleadon (where I think your George was....

Edons Hill

Charles DAVIS age 58 (age crossed through) born Newent
Elizabeth age 54 (age crossed through) born Weston, Here.
Charles DAVIS - age 30 - born Newent
Edwin DAVIS - age 8 - Upleadon.

So, Charles is on Page 1 (Edons Hill) and your George is on Page 14, which is headed Edons Hill at the top of this page. Knowing my ancestors lived/or moved in 'groups' - think these two are brothers!!! - but as it's late evening !!! I could be wrong!!!

Elizabeth DAVIES is on the 1841 census of Upleadon (without Charles), but with her children

Charles age 20
Sophia age 10
Samuel age 8
Job age 6
Elizabeth age 4
Edwin age 1

So, George (Charles brother??/) moved to Upleadon by 1851
