Is this Thomas, s/o Thomas Morgan & Ann Prosser? (General)

Might this be Thomas, son of Thomas and Ann Morgan? Just throwing it out here as a possibility--no proof, although there is a [grand?]son named Paul in the household, not quite a typical given name in the Morgans. I think Paul might belong to Martha...so the origin might or might not be Prosser-related?)

Skenfrith Parish
Tregout? p. 16a
Thomas Morgan 55, Ag lab, Monmouthshire;
Ann Morgan, 60, Monmouthshire;
Martha Morgan, 25, Monmouthshire;
Paul Morgan, 8, Monmouthshire (probably too young to belong to Ann);
James Morgan, 4, Monmouthshire

There are Merediths enumerated on this page and on the next.

There are at least a couple of Thomas Morgans born in 1773-ish in the area (age of the elder Thomas). One baptism I've unfortunately lost the source for is
21 Nov 1773 Thomas s/o James & Mary Morgan, Grosmont, Monmouthshire.

According to a post I've read about Garway, people with Grosmont and Skenfrith origins were common there, but this baptism is still speculation.

P. S. I think I might have identified James Morgan, 90, Monmouthshire in the 1841 Skenfrith census (p. 5a) as possibly the father of James Coles/Cowles Morgan. Enumerated on the next page of the census is J. A. Morgan, 52, Monmouthshire (p. 5b). J. A.'s children and wife have the same names as the ones for Joseph Austin Morgan, who is the older brother of James Cowles Morgan. Page 6 has a John Morgan, who might also be the son of James Morgan, 90....
