I've been trawling the 1841 for this family - Christchurch, Joyford, Berry Hill, Coleford, English Bicknor, Ruardean Hill....

they were either
1/ dispersed and in many homes/families
2/ recorded under another family name
3/ living - perhaps ex parocial - and missed by the Enumerator
4/ the census sheet has been lost
5/ living away
6/ a combination of the above
7/ or something else !!!!

the closest is a candidate for Thomas and Ann, but no George

1841 Moorwood
Ann Ward abt 1797 Gloucestershire, England Dean Forest, Gloucestershire
Ann Ward abt 1822 Gloucestershire, England Dean Forest, Gloucestershire
Thomas Ward abt 1829 Gloucestershire, England Dean Forest, Gloucestershire

1851
Ann Ward abt 1803 How Caple, Herefordshire, England Head East Dean, Gloucestershire
Thomas Ward abt 1830 Forge Hill East Dean, Gloucestershire, England Son East Dean, Gloucestershire

but I sidelined these after finding :-
