Just to clarify -
The '61 Census Year of Birth is 1809 and '71 is 1808 - you have posted YoB "about 1802" ('51 = 1808).
The '71 Census records Place of Birth consistently as London/Middlesex for William.
The '71 Census has his name as "William J Jennings""dyfal donc a dyr y garreg"

Sorry to have gone quiet - dealing with the living!
I didn't have the 1851 census but I do now - thank you. Mother's maiden name appears variously as Bigglestone and Biddlestone.
The 1871 census middle initial does look like a 'J' but I have looked carefully at the handwritten entry and it could be an 'S' with a random mark confusing things or just enumerator error.

Do you have further details of the 1835 marriage - other than simply posting the date of marriage? What's the source?
How do you reconcile the 2 pre 1835 births on the 1851 Census with the claimed 1835 marriage?"dyfal donc a dyr y garreg"

I had 1835 on a family tree given to me by a relative who had 'researched'. 1835 was quoted and Family Search as the source. As my research found births pre 1835 I went back to Family Search to check and have seen the marriage as 1825.
