Hannah married David Gratton in 1847,by then she had moved from the forest of Dean and was living in Trevethin.Thanks for the details.I wonder if she lied about her age? she was 26, getting married.I have tried to join the site, have given my details, but for some reason I fail to register, everything goes through alright,but I am told to wait a day before it comes active,but it never does.
Thanks for the information

So looking around in 1851 we have a pretty close match to the 1841 KNIGHT family from Ruardean ( bertha 2/6/6), with Abia, Susan and John siblings to Hannah.
1851 Trevethin
Abia Knight abt 1834 Rewerden, Gloucestershire, England Lodger Trevethin Monmouthshire
Susan Knight abt 1831 Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire, England Servant Trevethin Monmouthshire
John Knight abt 1823 Gloucestershire, England Head Trevethin Monmouthshire
Maryann Knight abt 1828 Gloucestershire, England Wife Trevethin Monmouthshire
Elizabeth Knight abt 1850 Trevethin, Monmouthshire, Wales Daughter Trevethin Monmouthshire
Sarah Ann Knight abt 1847 Trevethin, Monmouthshire, Wales Daughter Trevethin Monmouthshire
and a South Glos KNIGHT
Jacob Knight abt 1821 Gloucestershire, England Head Trevethin Monmouthshire
Charlotte Knight abt 1821 Gloucestershire, England Wife Trevethin Monmouthshire
Edward Knight abt 1840 Gloucestershire, England Son Trevethin Monmouthshire
checking 1841 appears to be
Eliza Knight abt 1826 Gloucestershire, England Frampton Cotterel Gloucestershire
Elizabeth Knight abt 1832 Gloucestershire, England Frampton Cotterel Gloucestershire
Elizh Knight abt 1791 Gloucestershire, England Frampton Cotterel Gloucestershire
Harriot Knight abt 1828 Gloucestershire, England Frampton Cotterel Gloucestershire
Jacob Knight abt 1821 Gloucestershire, England Frampton Cotterel Gloucestershire
Solomon Knight abt 1826 Gloucestershire, England Frampton Cotterel Gloucestershire

Thanks, its all food for thought, someone picked up a James Knight in Little Dean,in the 1841 census,I have to wonder when Hannah left, to live in Trevethin,she is recorded as a Spinster on her marriage cert.Did she once work? perhaps her family stayed in little Dean.Her father was alive at the time of her marriage.Anyway thanks for all the help.

If he is on the 1851 , then he is mis transcribed (!) I strongly suspect this is your man.

I think I have found him in the 1841 census, at her marriage Hannah is 26 in 1847, but later census reports put her two years younger,it is something I have found before following other families.I can confirm James Knight is not on any 1851 census,but to confuse,things further their is another James knight born in the Dean Forest, and he is the same age,but he is not the father of Hannah.
Thanks for all your work.
The 1841 census,
Abia Knight abt 1835,
Charlotte Knight abt 1830,
Eliza Knight abt 1827,
Hannah Knight abt 1821,
James Knight abt 1791,
James Knight abt 1838,
Richd Knight abt 1826,
Susan Knight abt 1832,
