Yet again, I have to say thank you for the helpful replies - am off to do some more digging.

 Valda,

Very many thanks for all your hard work on my behalf, but ... could I be a right pain in the posterior and ask if you could kindly give me a link to the  1841 Cenus for George Eve please?

I've searched 1841 with no joy and entered HO107 458/10 folio 8 page 10 - all I get is "no matches".    I know I'm doing something wrong, but I don't know what. 

Sorry to be quite such a nuisance - I'm new to this and, sadly, it shows.

Grateful thanks
MM

I wrote in each case what the census enumerator wrote not what an indexer had interpreted they had written. I also had the knowledge to know what the surname actually was.
I don't know which index you are using to access the 1841 census. On the index I am using the family is down as Eva (which happens quite a lot in the indexes) - I don't tend to use full names to search on. In this case with only three letters in the surname I couldn't use as asterisk to replace letters, so I just searched on the place and through first names in the family with the ages I knew to within 5 years looking for likely misindexed surnames begining with e. For mispellings of Osborn I would first check on Osb*
It is quicker to use an asterisk to avoid lengthy typing, so first names are Geo*, places are Grave* Kent etc. That way I avoid missing people through poor spelling by the census enumerator and poor indexing and it is quicker to type.

Thank you so much for that.   

As I said, I'm fairly new to this and am just finding my way around the various methods of searching.   Until now I've been putting in all the details I (thought) I knew and couldn't understand why everyone else seemed to be getting results while I got zero returns.   Putting an asterisk may seem obvious to some people, but unless someone like yourself is kind enough to explain ..... well, when you don't know - you don't know.   I do now.

Following your advice, I've found the 1841 entry you mentioned on Wednesday, as well as a number of other individuals.   Perhaps at last I can stop asking what must seem stupid questions.

For you patience, I thank you.

You don't ask stupid questions. You ask pertinent questions which get you the answers you need.
If you don't ask you don't find out.
That I believe is the main purpose of Rootschat - to inform and help
