Frederick Roberts 1871

I'm looking for Frederick Roberts + family on the 1871 census. On the 1881 census, it states that he was born in Taynton, Gloucester 1857 and was 24 yrs of age. At some point he moved to Upton Bishop, Ross where he was married in 1879, but I think that he could still be in the Gloucester area in 1871 at about the age of 14 yrs. Any help on this one would be gratefully received.
Thanks

1861 cencus
On the original image it states that he is there son.
It also states that martha & charles are step daughter and son.
Maybe frederick was born with the original name of Hale?

Hi Richard...This is taking some sorting out !
On the 1881 census, Matilda Roberts age 12 also born Taynton, Gloucester, was living at Upton Bishop, Herefordshire with Frederick Roberts. She was stated as being his sister.
Looks like Mary Ann Hale had a few children out of wedlock !
Thanks for your help.

if mary ann is the correct mother of frederick the fact that on 1861 cencus she had 2 brothers living with her with surname of phelps would suggest that phelps was her birth surname.
So she must of been married before to a HALE before marrying robert roberts.

Will try and find a marriage.
