Hi and welcome to this great website and forum.
I guess from your post you've used this websites PRs to help your researches, and you know Matthew's burial which I've posted below, for completeness. I see on LDS he's clear in the Census's which I suspect you know too, so wont' repeat them all. However I think you dont have a Baptism for him; I was wondering if you have any clues as to Matthews parents names ?

From LDS this is a POSSIBILITY, do the parents name tie in, perhaps they appear in the later Census, hopefully nearby to Matthew ???. Turkdean isn't too far from Nibley, altho of course Matthew is not a rare name and it seems to have been used quite a lot thro the Robinson line, so...???

Just a thought..hope it helps.

LATER UPDATE:

These are all the Matthew Robinsons listed within the Glos FHS 1851 Census cd: so the above Baptism is NOT your man, sorry, maybe this info is usefull anyhow if only as part of the elimination process....

1974 1851 CENSUS HO107/1974 FF.0136 - 0149 ED.9 & 12 DEERHURST 1

(as per LDS Baptism above)

Also on cd, same general area, also not in Dean of course

ROBINSON George SO - 1 - GLS North Nibley (c1850)

Also NOT your Matthew, but proves the family & family name was prevalent in the Nibley area.

As Slowhands has shown, THIS is your Matthew:

ROBINSON Sam SO - 2 - GLS West Dean (c1849)

HOWEVER, this is all what I'm sure you already know, with no hint (yet) of Matthew's Baptism, but thought worth looking up just in case.

Wills
Have you checked the Wills section of this FoD site ?. There are several Robinsons listed from 1859 onwards including William presumably as per the 1841 Viney Hill Census shown earlier, worth a look perhaps ?

Also the Glos Archives website lists Wills in North Nibley, so perhaps Matthews parents, from 1799 onwards.
eg Matthew Robinson, Yeoman North Nibley, March 1846
