Those aged 15 and over were put into 5 year age categories on the 1841 viz 15-19, 20-24, etc.

So 75 years old probably means 75-79 or older which takes it to 1761-66 or before. I'll have a look. Added - no baptisms found on SP.

From what Carol says he was a Captain - RN or Merchant Navy and the family seem quite 'posh'. They might well not be in Scotland in 1841  :-\

Don't think I can help anymore here.

Thank you all once again for taking so much trouble on my behalf.

You are correct in that my Gabriel was married to Charlotte Louisa.  He was Gabriel William according to his daughter's marriage certificate.
