Hi
My Irish distant grandparents on the 1871-1901 census put their age at being born around 1847, but on the 1911 census they put their age as 6 years younger.
As they were born in Ireland im struggling to find any birth reference to either of them (i now have a suggested POB from the 1911 but thats all really), so all i have to go on is that their first child was born in 1868. I presume they werent both 15 at the time of the birth, however im sure that is not unheard of.
The 1911 census info was also written by an enumerator for this household and he has also put that the male was born in Limerick, Kilmarnock which im fairly certain are an Irish county and Scottish place? (however there is a place called Kilmallock which im sure is what he meant)
Also, can anyone tell me what the codes are after the place of birth on the census?
