I originally rejected the Hather link previously because in the 1841 census, Samuel had been put down as being born in the county of Nottinghamshire.
But then I looked at Benjamin Ringrose, brother of Samuel. He was baptised in 1781 in Hather.
In that 1841 census, Benjamin was also put down as being born in Nottinghamshire.
That is quite common with the 1841 Census and I've seen it quite a lot of times, someone listed as born in county when either later census or other information confirms otherwise, and vice versa. Added to the issue with lack of relationship and rounding of ages, the 1841 is the least accurate but can obviously still be useful. There can of course be issues with all the Census, particularly dependent on the informant of the information and whether they are being totally honest.
