I know ages are strange on 1841 but I think that having 20 year old children in 1841 from an 1828 marriage is pushing it a bit - any ideas on another relationship or had Samuel/Sarah been married before?

I noticed that, it could be the wrong marriage or its possible they were from a previous husband.

Of course it possible that Edward and Eliza might not be Samuel and Sarah's children.

About 30 families apart on census so given how close they were packed together possibly not far but even so...!!

Could have been abroad because I can't find reference to either Thomas or Matilda in 1861/1871!!
Isn't there gold in Wales? Australia? When was the USA gold rush?

I think it was about 1849 in America, and 1851 in Australia when gold was first found.

The number at the side of the census is 85 for John Ganner, and 117 for Samuel Gordon, and at the number 125 we have,
Hannah Shakspear Widow, 45.
Isaacher Shakspear 16.
