Charles Cobbe, Portsmouth
« on: Sunday 06 July 14 15:02 BST (UK) »
Can anybody help me, please, with the census entry for Portsmouth (Hampshire UK) 1841 for the name of Charles Cobbe?  It appears in the Portsea Island Registration District, in the sub-district of Kingston & Landport, and the Parish of Portsea.
Any other information about Charles Cobbe would be welcome.  He was a colleague of John Dickens, father of Charles Dickens, and worked in the Navy Pay Office at Portsmouth.
Many thanks.

Given the age rounding in the 1841 census and the fact that Charles was not born in the county you probably need to widen your search. Here are some of the possibilities:
