I don't know how to do it myself, but looking up census details is easy - Retlaw will probably fix you up with details from the 1841 and 1851 censuses.
The book 'Accrington Chronology & Men of Mark' has references to Simpsons who owned Foxhill Bank printworks & coalmines. This was a prominent Ossie family.
