	Thanks Vera I should theres a good chance thats him, remember ages were rounded up or down by 5 years of adults in 1841, so if he was really 26, that would make him born 1815, there dosn`t seem to be too many joseph boons around, so fingers crossed that may be him, can you see him in any later census.? Why did people live on their own??? didn`t they realise how difficult it was going to be for us to trace them nearly 200 years later.???!!!!!! lol Nicky
