Yes Derek but I am wondering if the 'William' on there is actually 'Joseph' ??? - the age is about right and we know that the real William is much older' - I think the names may have been mixed up somehow??

Will work on it this afternoon.

Dea..I shouldn't bother too much about William's age....Censuses were notoriously inaccurate in that respect...........there's a lot of work being done here....some feedback from peter would be useful!! Trouble with your version of the 1861..shouldn't Joseph 1854 be on it??

Derek.

Sorry Dea I was following you 1851 census but can't find any of them in 1861 yet. At least you have started on lunch!! I have to go out now so I will leave you to find them in 1861. Good Luck.

Dratt - was going to post that 1871 census but rootgatherer already posted it ages ago while I was making a start on lunch! - I REALLY think it is the correct one - it has the 3 brothers together and the image is VERY difficult to read so Joseph's age may well not say 11!

Joseph Bentley..baptised Mansfield Notts 09.04.1854 son of Robert Bentley and Elizabeth nee Davison (Source: Parish records)
The 1881 Census has them at staveley..which is definitley my patch!!..and John T was clearly born before they were married....don't take the age of John T too seriously...could have been born anytime within a couple of years of the date shown..I'll check it out for you.
