Hi Karaka,
Just to help you rule out my John & Mary Watkins in Bishopswood, Ruardean from the 1841 census, should you come across them on your search! I apologise as someone else may be able to help you with a more in-depth detailed search of the 1841 and 1851 census' - but given Mary's age; the closest match may be a John & Mary Watkins, both 35, In Churchend, Tidenham, Gloucestershire. Given that they were married at Awre With Blakeney in 1840; Tidenham is maybe 14 or 15 miles or so round the coast from Blakeney, but on the main road nonetheless! another family of William and Hannah Watkins plus five children are also in Churchend, Tidenham. As I sa,y perhaps someone else can help you with the 1851 census to give you more of a clue as to their children's names tec. (presuming they had children). Good luck.
Sean.
