Thank you all for info the Bedford connection appears to tie in very nicely and have had a lot of info from the Beds board to confirm the information . I don't seem to be able to find chas on the 1861 census though.I would like to find him if poss also his mother's birth and any info on her parents William and Frances Tilley.

Hi Robert,
Not sure if I understand part of your question as I gave you his Mothers Christening;
Frances TILLEY, Christened 07 March 1817, St Mary, Weston, Lincolnshire
Parents WILLIAM and FRANCES
You can search Familysearch Pilot yourself for extra info but here we go;
Children of WILLIAM/FRANCES Tilley, Christened St Mary, Weston, Lincs
MARY D'RIPPE, 14 September 1823
ELIZABETH, 19 February 1826
ABRAHAM, 01 November 1829
I cant find them in 1841 under Tilley but it is possible Frances Remarried;
Frances TILLEY
William NORMAN, 27 February 1837, Weston, Lincoln
1841 Census
Skirbeck, Lincs
HO107/610/2/Skirbeck
William NORMAN, 65 (45?), Ag Lab
Frances Norman, 65 (45?)
Lucy Norman, 4
Mary SELLEY (TILLEY?), 15
All born in County
The image is hard to make out but I am pretty sure what I have put in brackets is the correct info.
Mary D'Riffe Tilley would be abt 15 in 1841.
I would appreciate others opinions :)

Unfortunately we do not know where William was born as he does not appear on any Census.
There is this one though from the IGI;
(William TILLEY, 01 JAN 1794, Carlby, Lincoln, England to WILLIAM and ANN) EDIT; IGNORE THIS ONE AS Geoff E has found better info in his post!
And also;
