Working on the assumption that John Robson was born c.1790 - 1800 (child born c 1819) I found

John Robson  40
Mary Robson  45

HO107/296/11 Folio 4 Page 2; Line: 10

I'll continue to dig.

That seems to be all on the 1841 census.

They lived in Low Fell, Gateshead and he is listed as an Agricultural Labourer.

Don't forget that ages were rounded to the nearest 5 years in the 1841 census.
