Dont forget that ages on the 1841 census only were rounded down to the nearest 5 - so Reuben although shown as aged 30 could have been 31, 32, 33 or 34.

A2A = Access to Archives.  It's a great site where you can find reference to ancestors through many documents involving Land, removal orders, settlements etc.
Here's the link  http://www.a2a.org.uk/

SJ.

Ages weren't always correct on census as most people didn't always know exactly when they were born, if they did, then there was always that temptation to tell a little 'porkie pie' to make them younger or older, as the case maybe ;)

As far as spelling of names was concerned, again, many people could not read or write so they couldn't check what was recorded by the clerk, and if he had asked, 'is that Elliot with one T or two?' they wouldn't have had a clue ???
