Yes, I believe so. Census information is dependent on who actually gave it so if a father, for example, said his son was born in Sculcoates, that same son, ten or twenty years later could easily say Sutton. A man giving information about his wife's birth place will only give what he knows, so it could be just the town, rather than the district within it. Some people are very precise when saying where they were born, others seem to give amuch more generalised answer.
