Hi Geoff, Sorry no luck...either he was missed off the census or he and his family have been mistranscribed....no help I know. Regards Vera

Many thanks for trying Vera and Georgina. I know what it's like to try and find people in the early censi. The writing is so bad (and people so illiterate) they are indeed frequently mistranscribed! I'll pop in to the Devon Records office again soon (and I'll do a lookup thread for others) as I live not too far away. TA, Geoff.
