Rouse

[wiilams83]

Looking for information into a Richard Rouse 1786

In 1841 census he is living with his wife Elizabeth and his  children in Bridgnorth Shropshire aged 55 years

[KGarrad]

Adult ages on the 1841 census were generally rounded down to  multiple of 5 years.
So, Richard could have been any age from 55 to 59.
Making his birth 1781 to 1786.

Was he shown to have been born in the County?

[wiilams83]

Yes but not sure where could be local in Shropshire

Struggling to find a Richard Rouse, age 55, Bridgnorth, Shropshire - born in County.
Can see a Richard Ruse, age 55, Bridgnorth, Shropshire - NOT born in County.

Do you have the Census reference for Richard Rouse?

That Census reference delivers Richard Ruse, 55, Not born in County.

So he wasn’t born in Shropshire

The carpet weaver occupation suggested to me Kidderminster, Worcestershire,  maybe.

I found a Pheobe Ruse was baptised in October 1826, born August 1826. Parents listed as Richard and Elizabeth. Richard was described as a Carpet Weaver.

Try there for Richard.
