    Hello Tina

    I too have found John Brickell age 48 Occupation stone mason born Shaftesbury.

    Wife Elizabeth age 47 born Motcombe.

    Sometimes in the past people gave their incorrect ages for a good reason or the enumorator might have simply written their ages incorrectly or the ages were written incorrectly when transcribed.

    Hope this is some help. Best Wishes.
