Hi,
    Welcome to roots chat. I cannot be of direct help but I have found a couple of interesting families in the 1851 census. These were recorded in 1909 for pension purposes so are still extant.
George and Jane Rosborough of Ballyhanedin, Children Jane aged 3 and James aged 2.
Joseph and Mary Ann Rosborough of Ballyhanedin, Children James 10, Martha 8, Joseph 6, George 4, John and William both 1 month.
     There was another family in Sallowillow, Upper Cumber.

Regards
