The 1891 census is free on Family Search - have you looked for him on it?

There are several Henry and Harry ASHWORTHs on the 1891 census on FamilySearch which might fit - but one Henry H has parents on the previous page (so not listed with family!) and there is also a boarder and a grandson.

It would be useful to know the source of Henry's name/age.  Is it a marriage or death cert, or another source?

According to birth index Henry Hermon Wilson Ashworth, was born Sept.qtr.1888 Haslingden, mmn Darling!

Benjamin Wilson Ashworth married Mary Ann Darling 1870 Haslingden.

1891 Census shows all family born in Accrington.

So, whilst Henry H W Ashworth married in Rochdale he was born in Accrington but living with family in Rochdale by 1901.
