In that case perhaps he was older than you thought. I'll have another look at the 1841 census.

thanks. I have just discovered that 1795 was his christening year, and it looks like his parents had at least 3 other children christened at the same time

Can't find one with this birth year in Birmingham (even allowing for the ages to be rounded down to the nearest 5 years).
