Has anyone easy access to this census who could check something for me
please?

Gordon Beavington has my Benjamin Tincknell (mentioned in an early post) as
the son of Benjamin Tincknell and Hannah living at Meare. I would like to
check that this is what the actual census says as now we have father John,
grandparents John & Sarah in 1841, Parents Benjamin and Hannah (who are
about the same age as his grandparents)  in 1851 and father Elisha Duckett
in 1857 at his marriage. There seems to be only ever one Benjamin of this
age in the area at any particular time. As far as I know Benjamin the elder
and John the elder are not closely related but Benjamin's parentage is
unknown.

If someone could pick up Benjamin's c 1835 baptism somewhere that would be
extra good!
