But why wasn't he on 1851 Census with the family ? Perhaps he dies before 1851 ?

This burial is in 1856 after the 1851 census, so he is not dead ;-)

This may be another Oldcroft MORGAN :-

1841 Oldcroft
James Morgan abt 1815 Gloucestershire, England Dean Forest, Gloucestershire
Amelia Morgan abt 1813 Gloucestershire, England Dean Forest, Gloucestershire
Amelia Morgan abt 1838 Gloucestershire, England Dean Forest, Gloucestershire
James Morgan abt 1839 Gloucestershire, England Dean Forest, Gloucestershire
James Jones abt 1832 Dean Forest, Gloucestershire

---------------

Now assuming he hasn't just left the home, I'm sure you've searched, is this his death on FreeBMD, it's the best fit I can find in the district.

From this site's PRs, I wonder if it should read age 31 not 37 ?? (I cannot see a match on FreeBMD for a 37year old dying at this time), you might like to request a Check of this PR ??;
