There is an entry on the 1871 census for Scotland:

93 NB Cannongate, Edinburgh

Francis Porri b abt 1831 Birmingham
Margaret b abt 1832 Dublin
Kate b abt 1858 Birmingham
Francis b abt 1859 Liverpool
Thomas b abt 1863 Dublin
Michael Angelo b abt 1867 Dublin
William b abt 1871 Liverpool

No information given on occupation of Francis. I'll check further census, see if I can find him anywhere else.
 
Found Francis in 1881 living in Glasgow:

Francis Porri age 47 - Artist in Plaster of Paris
Margaret aage 45
