I agree, this was 'fun' to find.
This is almost certainly the 1771 census I was looking for. The census was very hard ro read, but its almost certain that 'Jorden' should read 'Jordan',
and as I cannot find Cinderton in my gazeteer,Cinderford could be the true place of birth. With those changes everything fits into place, together with the age of Mary Ann Jordan(2) at that time.

I have found some very unusual forenames during my searches, my favourites being 'Barzella' and 'Meshetarbel'
