Interesting to compare this entry with the 1861 Census ...........

Thomas Ranicar Lodger Married Male 58 1803 Salt Reeler Wigan, Lancashire, England
Betsey Ranicar Lodgers Wife Married Female 42 1819 Bottom Winder Lancashire, England

The ages and occupation are so far out that I wonder if this is the correct pair

Thomas Rannicar was born ca 1811-1814 ......... so should be about 50-51 in 1861, occupation seems a little strange.

Betty Massey was 40 when they married in 1854, but only 42 in 1861 .............. possible that she lied so as not to seem too young BUT ...................

Looking at the image of that 1861 Census on ancestry, it is apparent that there are severl mistakes with the transcription as posted by safc ....

Joseph Werrell Head Widower Male 53 1808 Cotton Weaver Ireland
Bellinda Coyle Lodger Unmarried Female 30 1831 Winder Ireland
Thomas Ranicar Lodger Married Male 58 1803 Salt Reeler Wigan, Lancashire, England
Betsey Ranicar Lodgers Wife Married Female 42 1819 Bottom Winder Lancashire, England


On the image, Lodger and Lodgers Wife have been crossed out, and replace with Head and Wife.

Looking at the other people living at that address, it is apparent that there are 3 families living in the same house, but independent of each other. The only one shown as Lodger, and left as such, is Belinda Coyle who is seemingly lodging with Joseph Werrell.

Thomas occupation is Salt Dealer, but his age is still shown as 58, with birth year estimated at 1803.

Shell - best to start your own thread. Hindley is in a totally different county to Portsea. 1940 & 1841 are 101 years apart :-D
