No sign of Robert! I wonder if he was living with a family and registered under their name?

Possibly not; there's a Robert Dudleston in 1841 (Class: HO107;Folio: 30; Page 19), which clashes with the 1841 census we have for Robert Dulson (1841 HO107 Piece 900 Book 15 Folio   17 Page    2)

Looks as if his father died between 1845 and 1851 and the family have split up, so he may be working somewhere.



1851  Ellesmere Road, Wem, Shropshire

HO107 Piece number   1995  Folio   395 Page   11
Jane   Dulson   Head   Widow      43      Pauper   Prees, Shropshire
Martha   Dulson   Daughter      10                      Prees, Shropshire,
Elizabeth   Dulson   Daughter      9                      Prees, Shropshire,
James   Dulson   Son              5                      Prees, Shropshire

Yes - the family is SHATTERED in 1851. From the children of the 1841, I *think* I can find later traces for:
Joseph ( RG10/2787/ 58 p 2)
Sarah ( RG12/2121/131 p 13) Married William Hall 1855 Flintshire
Robert (obvs)
John (RG11/ 2669/86 p 1)
Martha (RG 9/1884/56 p 4)
Thomas (HO107/1995/317 p 5)

The Thomas (1851) is wrong;

The grandparents (Thomas b1789, Sarah b1778) show in 1841 (Prees, Shropshire HO107/900/12/28 p 11) with a Son John, which clashes with our 1841 John/Jane family census.
