Hattons in Lydbrook

Hi,
Read with great interest the posts re Hattons in the Lydbrook area and hoped I may be able to get some help...

My g Grandparents were Albert Hatton (b 1861 in Upper Lydbrook) and Cecilia Scott (b 1862 in Banff)

Albert's father was William Hatton (born approx 1836) and mother was Sarah (b approx 1838).

1881 Census lists
William Hatton Head
Sarah Wife
Albert
Elizabeth
William
Jane
Adlina
Tom
Henry
Louisa

1871 Census similarly lists
William Hatton Head
Sarah Wife
Albert
Elizabeth
Jane
William
Adlina

Now things get a little hazier
1861 Census shows:
John Morgan Head
Harriett Wife
Sarah Daur
Edward Son
Albert Son
William Hatton Lodger

...and sure enough on the Monmouth marriage indexes for 1861 Q2 William Hatton and Sarah Ann Morgan are on the same page (certificate applied for)

Now... there are two William Hattons listed previous to this in the census records.

1) William Hatton son of Thomas Hatton is previously listed in this forum by Mike Gwilliam as having married Lois Powell in 1859. Therefore we can rule this candidate out.

2)The other is the son of James Hatton (b approx 1799 in Ruardean) and Susan (or Susannah in the 1841 Census)
1851 Census
James Hatton
Susan
Elizabeth
Isaac
William
Joseph
Mary Pugh (visiting)

1841 Census
James Hatton
Susanna
Eliza
Elizabeth
Isaac
William
Joseph

Has anyone got any information about this family that can give us a steer at this point? Validation (or otherwise) of the set of hypotheses we are working with would be a great help.

This would be my "favoured" branch based on the places of Birth and census records, all pointing to that part of West Dean at the top of Worrall Hill /Lydbrook, rather than down by the River.
