Investing in the birth cert would probably be a good idea

Births Mar 1840 (>99%)
Peatman William Lincoln 14 438

Thnaks both, these are the 2 entries I have. I have a suspicion that John & Ann have recorded themselves as parents at the baptism when they are not. I am also dubious that he is the son on Joseph & Maria, as Joseph would have only been 16 when William was conceived.

Just in case the Joseph and Maria, in the 1851 census posted above, are his parents, here's their marriage:

Julie -
is the 1851 I posted the same one you have found?

As Long Bennington fall in the Newark Registration district maybe this is his birth registration

Name: William Peatman
Event Type: Birth Registration
Registration Quarter: Jul-Aug-Sep
Registration Year: 1841
Registration District: Newark
County: Nottinghamshire
Event Place: Newark, Nottinghamshire, England
Volume: 15
Page: 531
Line Number: 22

Which would explain why he wasn't with his parents in 1841. He hadn't been born.

This is the only William Peatman I an see which fits with what you say in 1851.
Perhaps you are wrong in thinking that John and Anne are his parents?

I am trying to trace William Peatman, born 1840 Lincoln. I have him on the 1851 census living with his grandparents Thomas & Elizabeth Peatman @ Long Bennington. I also have a baptism at Lincoln St Nicholas in Newport, Lincoln, parents stated as John & Anne, which fits with place of birth on the 1851 census. Whilst John is a son of Thomas & Elizabeth, William is not listed with either John & Ann or Thomas & Elizabeth in 1841, both coupleswere resident Long Bennington at that time. I can't find any other trace of him,a part from a possible BMD entry for Q1 @ Lincoln.
