The reason I feel reasonably certain is that I have a copy of what I believe to be a census dated 1851 (C51), Of course, I may well have misinterpreted this.

He is described as "Head" - of the family, I presume, aged 76, His occupation is described as "Land Property". His son, William, aged 40, is described as "Receiving Poor Relief" - as are the remainder of his family - even his grandchildren!!

Perhaps a little odd . . .
