HI: I would like to put in my two cents about the ages on the census. First there is a valid reason for some of the age differences - The census taker had to canvass the areas and it often took several weeks or in some cases months to complete the census. In some years at the beginning of the census taking it even took a couple of years to collect and transfer to the central point of storage. Regardless of the time it took the census would be referred to as 1810-1820-1830 or what ever year, but the age in the next one might be taken right at the birthday of the person and the age difference would then show up. Some of the people did not know what the term "your age as of say the first of July" they would more than likely give their age as right then. Anyway - censuses were not and are not exact every time.
