*TBC-Archive?* What do you make if this?

I was just looking at something connected to another post and found this.
Transcribed as Mr Lake Freres aged 6 moths; I swear it says Late Mr Freres. Address is marked as "uninhabited or building" but seems to be included in the household of Stephen Hunt, aged 45, cheese factor. Handy cold store perhaps?
(1841 census, Ross, herefordshire).

Has anyone every seen a dead person on the census before?

Just had a look Gardener, it does have 'do' against his name which I would have thought meant he is was on his own.
Perhaps the enumerater found him dead ?

I agree it looks like Late Mr, there is no age given so the 6 Mo could be when he died.
It could be telling you who last lived at that house.

I havent seen that before!
I cant see a death for that name but his F's and T's look alike. I also think it says NK for age rather than 6 months?

I agree Jo, it does look like NK for his age

Now I've looked at it in close-up - could it be Late Mrs Finch?

1841 Census was in Herefordshire > Ross >
Found this...

Deaths Dec 1840
FINCH Sarah Ross 26 137

The 1841 census was later than the others, done June 7th so I think Mrs Finch would have been a bit wiffy.

There is a William Ferrer, died June qtr Ross. he gets my vote.
