Hello All, Well I need some help with Census inconsistency's and wondered if
some nice person would look at this and give me there thoughts.. I am looking
for my Mallett family and the person I started with was my GGrandfather James
Mallett and I have his Death CERT so the only thing I am Sure of is his
parents names Samuel Mallett and Mary Ann Hobbs and his birthdate. So I have
received 2 census from 2 very nice people out there and am trying to
determine if they are the same family, there are inconsistencies but also to
many coincidences Can some one look this over and tell me if i have the same
family here..On James Death Cert it says his birthdate is Jan 24 1861 and he
was 52 years 2months and 10 days (which is off to start with) Then i received
a Birth Cert for a james Mallett From Newton Abbott Correct Parents and
BirthDate of Jan 24, 1862. Then the following 2 Census is what i am trying to
blend...
