Colin,

William was 81 in the 1851 Census @ Burford, Oxon, ( Witney District )down as Searcott on Ancestry.

William Searcott Age81
James Searcott Age50
Hannah Searcott Age49

Father of James so I would presume that this is the same William b; 1765

The baptism I posted earlier was 1771, which may be correct but the place of birth in 1851 is Chester, Staffordshire, which may have been transcribed incorrectly I have not seen original, however it may be worth looking at the baptism below?
