Can anyone do a look up in the 1841 census for a Elizabeth Oliver widow to a Henry Oliver. Apparently she lived in castle Street, Bodmin, Cornwall. She was born in 1766 and baptized in Luxulyan, near Bodmin on 31/3/1766
Thanks Roy Horwell

As you have said, in Castle St Bodmin

Obviously, no marital status

At same address William Oliver, Carpenter, age 46, and what appear to be his wife and 7 offspring, plus a carpenter apprentice, name of William Pond
All born in Cornwall
