possible confusion? (General)
I have a feeling that there are two familes being mixed up here.
a Lydbrook/Coleford family and a Cinderford/Littldean family
The Richard Cooper ,(1853 Broadmoor) does not appear with the likely family in 1861 - the family that is living in Broadmoor in 1851. the mother appears to be Ann Nelmes ex Walford/Ruardean. So does this Richard die before 1861 ?
However, the Richard Cooper ( 1854 Lydbrook) that links to Shortstanding seems to be the West Dean family and has a son Edwin 1847 ( in 1851 census).
