Why would the census place say he was born Stewton and another Ailesby? I think the Joseph born South Cockerington could be a likely I will have to try and get to the archives many thanks for your help

Kathleen where did you find that info of parents?

Have you also tried www.lincstothepast.com?

I will try that is it a free site? Can you tell me if he has a brother called William born c1810 possibly south cockerington? Many thanks

The census records the information given to the enumerator by the householder. The people compiling the censuses had to write down what they were told.

If they were given inaccurate info it wasn’t their fault

The man in question was born no later than early 1814 if his age on censuses is accurate
